As you are aware, our COVID response measures are continually being reviewed to ensure they are aligned with national protocols and WA measures as appropriate, informed by expert medical advice.Attention Christmas & Cocos (Keeling) Islanders - 15/11/2020 : SA Travellers
The recent announcement by the WA Government in relation to South Australian travellers also applies to the IOTs.
Unfortunately we will not be accepting any travellers from South Australia until WA does.
This is the only way we can ensure the safety of our community while preserving our very important WA/IOT travelzone.
Please direct any questions to my office via email IOTAdminstrator@infrastructure.gove.au
