South Australia will relax its border restrictions with the ACT from midnight tonight — but restrictions on people from New South Wales will remain in place indefinitely.
The Police Commissioner said that from midnight people travelling from the ACT will not have to undertake a 14-day quarantine period when they arrive in SA.
Commissioner Grant Stevens said that for the "foreseeable future", people travelling from New South Wales will still be required to serve the 14-day quarantine period. "[However] it is an open-ended time-frame because New South Wales is continuing to identify isolated cases of community transmission.
