1
00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:05,480
Speaker 1: We love speaking to this lady, and we haven't spoken

2
00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:06,720
Speaker 1: to her for a few weeks.

3
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:09,560
Speaker 2: That means that we did miss her birthday. Big birthday

4
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:12,360
Speaker 2: as well. Our premiere Gladys verriagically and welcome to the

5
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:16,799
Speaker 2: show us Happy birthday. How was the Big five?

6
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 3: Oh? Well, do you have to remind everybody you.

7
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 4: Like a day over twenty one? Gladys?

8
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, thank you. I was kind of glad that I,

9
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 3: you know, because of COVID, I coudn't have a big party,

10
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 3: so it was a bit of a relief.

11
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:32,559
Speaker 4: Actually, did you consider getting out your wonder Woman outfit

12
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 4: from your.

13
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,960
Speaker 3: I did not strap it out, but I did not.

14
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:39,760
Speaker 2: Now, okay, we're going to see.

15
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 1: We're going to see if if it gets through your

16
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:45,960
Speaker 1: people to you. Did you get the Fitzi and Whipper

17
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:46,560
Speaker 1: merch pack?

18
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:48,360
Speaker 3: I did, thank you so much.

19
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 2: Okay, but yeah, it.

20
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 3: A box and it had like drinking things, It had

21
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:53,520
Speaker 3: like merchandise.

22
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, the robbieh As.

23
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,120
Speaker 1: We also have the Fitzy Squatt and Peroth which was

24
00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 1: the tower compounder.

25
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, go fine for anywhere on the body. You got

26
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 2: a special type of keyring and some slippers in a puzzle.

27
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 3: So what a trade got all that. Thank you very much,

28
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 3: sound right.

29
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 4: I made my way down to Bondi twice over the weekend.

30
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 4: I invited you as well. How did you feel about

31
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,400
Speaker 4: the numbers that gathered at the beach. There's a little

32
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 4: bit of question over the social distancing that we're there

33
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,480
Speaker 4: and maybe what we can look forward to this summer.

34
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 3: Well I don't remember getting an invitation from you, but anyway,

35
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 3: in relation to the summer, we've been really trying to

36
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 3: get on the front foot. So we have a COVID

37
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,840
Speaker 3: Summer Safe Plan, which says to people, it's okay to

38
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 3: enjoy the outdoors, it's okay to go to the beaches

39
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 3: in the parks, but make sure you keep your social distancing.

40
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 3: And I was worried about the weekend, but I think

41
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 3: in the main crowds were really respectful, and police and

42
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 3: counsel and our health people have been working together to

43
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 3: make sure we support one another during this process. And

44
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 3: I know some councils are considering reducing parking and reducing

45
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 3: other ways to ensure and doesn't occur. In the main,

46
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 3: people seem to be respecting or right. Thing was just fantastic.

47
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:08,799
Speaker 1: Each beach capped goddess is that what it is and

48
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 1: you've got trying to count, is that what.

49
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 3: Happens you do well, it's really each council kind of

50
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 3: has its way of doing it, but mainly people work

51
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 3: out roughly how many people you could have before social

52
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 3: distancing was a problem, and so they'll stop allowing beaches

53
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 3: allowing people to turn up after it's already crowded, or

54
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 3: else they'll put other rules in place like we're just parking.

55
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 3: And some councils are also considering, you know, having kind

56
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 3: of zones or areas in which you can have certain

57
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 3: numbers of people. So we're working with all the different

58
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 3: local areas and recently I had a great conversation with

59
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 3: a local member in Manley, James Griffin and all his

60
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 3: community leaders and they were having some great ideas about

61
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 3: how that could manage to support their community during this

62
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,239
Speaker 3: and make sure over creating wasn't a problem.

63
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 2: Maybe.

64
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 3: So it's really good in that I think people are

65
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:03,079
Speaker 3: appreciate adding the risk and they're really responding to it

66
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 3: and being thoughtful and considerate and making sure that everybody

67
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 3: has to go on our Hottimer data to get down

68
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 3: to the beach in a safe Way Premier.

69
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: I've got family in Victoria helped me out here because

70
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 1: they keep bugging me.

71
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 2: When are we going to be able to travel there?

72
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 2: When are the borders opening?

73
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 3: Well, look, it really depends on how Victoria goes once

74
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 3: they is restriction because obviously when you're in a shutdown position,

75
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 3: it's easy to keep the virus numbers low. The real

76
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 3: testing is what happens when you list those restrictions. Have

77
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 3: you done enough work with the contact tracing? Have you

78
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 3: made sure that as you give people more freedom that

79
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 3: the virus isn't going to spread again? So that's a

80
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 3: real threat. And I remember I remember saying going blue

81
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 3: in the face and saying if everybody back in March

82
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 3: April when we went through our hopefully one and early

83
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 3: lockdown that I set to people, watch the case numbers

84
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 3: go up as restrict restrictions, because there's no way you're

85
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 3: going to be able to go from zero activity to

86
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 3: a low number of cases and have active. Do you

87
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 3: not expect those case numbers to go up because people

88
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 3: have been around more. So that's what we need to

89
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 3: watch and that's where to be fearmish. Southwlles past the

90
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 3: test we had a few breakouts that we're able to

91
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 3: put it on top of it and people have still

92
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 3: had relative freedom here. I don't think there's much we

93
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 3: can't do at the moment. It means we have to

94
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 3: curtail what we're doing, so instead of having a big

95
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 3: group when we go out to dinner, we have ten

96
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 3: at the moment, and if we're obviously doing other activities

97
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 3: we have we have to keep out our distance to

98
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,839
Speaker 3: be careful. But that'll be with us to those things

99
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 3: that we currently haven't missed South Wells in terms of

100
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 3: the social distancing and the hand sanitizing and we're wearing

101
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 3: masks in appropriate settings. They'll be with us until the

102
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 3: end of the pandemic.

103
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 2: So sure, sure, glad. Can we talk about queens Land border?

104
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:44,559
Speaker 4: So November one, that's when it's going to be open, right,

105
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 4: But the demand is twenty eight days of no community

106
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 4: community transmissions.

107
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that is too high about it.

108
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 2: I agree it's been dictated to us.

109
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,680
Speaker 4: There has there been any further conversations with the premier there, Well,

110
00:04:58,760 --> 00:04:59,279
Speaker 4: well they're.

111
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 3: Not, you know, the then I'm goin to change their

112
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 3: mind before especially well they've got their polls one, so

113
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 3: I doubt whim thing's going to change before then. It's

114
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 3: too high a mark. And you know, I often think

115
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 3: to myself, I wonder how some of the other states

116
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 3: would have gone had they faced a number of cases

117
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,040
Speaker 3: we had or the outbreaks we had. Because our state,

118
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 3: at least, because we've kept down borders open except with Victoria,

119
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 3: we've actually been tested. We've actually had to We've actually

120
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,839
Speaker 3: had to be in a situation where we had breakouts

121
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,760
Speaker 3: in the first hotel where a Victoria and person had

122
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 3: the virus and turned up. We had to contact trace

123
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:33,920
Speaker 3: six hundred people in a very short amount of time

124
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 3: and then get on top of their contacts and make

125
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 3: sure that this didn't spread. And then we had a

126
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 3: few other issues restaurants, a funeral setting, and a few

127
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 3: other breakouts, and so our system has been tested and

128
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 3: proved to be resilient. Now. It doesn't mean we're not

129
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 3: going to have problems in the future, because once we

130
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,039
Speaker 3: let our guard down and once it will relax, you know,

131
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 3: it can happen again. But generally speaking, we've shown that

132
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 3: we can get on top of it, we can identify

133
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 3: the cases. Interestingly, Friday week, assuming everything goes well, we'll

134
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 3: be walking in dealing.

135
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 2: Yeah.

136
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 3: There, PM actually contacted me over the weekend and whilst

137
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 3: they won't be giving us the reciprocal arrangements now they

138
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:12,360
Speaker 3: are watching what's happening in your stuff. I was very

139
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 3: closely so.

00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,360

Speaker 1: high to us? Gladys? Would you leave the hospital with

Speaker 3: Gladys, Well, if I was in America, I'd be wearing

00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 3: was all fine.

Speaker 1: Yes, she would do it, you would, so, glad this

158
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 1: has a been Matt, can you just just quickly confirm this,
