1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:02,040 Speaker 1: Jones and Amanda in the morning. 2 00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:04,840 Speaker 2: Sam, Good morning Premier. 3 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:08,799 Speaker 3: Hello, they're gladays. Can I just ask you, can we 4 00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:11,640 Speaker 3: put out a mandate that radio co host can't bring 5 00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:13,040 Speaker 3: an egg into the studio. 6 00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:14,880 Speaker 2: It was a boiled egg and it was in a 7 00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:16,800 Speaker 2: shell and then I shelled it, NATed. Is that it 8 00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 2: against the law? 9 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:19,479 Speaker 1: What's what's wrong with that? 10 00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:20,360 Speaker 3: Exactly? 11 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:22,240 Speaker 1: And it's protein, it's healthy. 12 00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:26,639 Speaker 2: I'm glad become people one of the egg people. How 13 00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:30,480 Speaker 2: it's reading in the paper this morning Premier that medically 14 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:34,159 Speaker 2: our Brendan Murphy, our chief medical officer, is saying there 15 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,200 Speaker 2: is no medical reason why we can't open the border 16 00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,680 Speaker 2: between New South Wales and Queensland, and so there it 17 00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:42,520 Speaker 2: could be a case where the tourism industry could take 18 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,199 Speaker 2: the Queensland government to court to say we demand that 19 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:46,240 Speaker 2: the borders are open. 20 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:49,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. Look, I just look, I think I made my 21 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:51,839 Speaker 1: five views very very clear about that. I just think 22 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: it's silly keeping the border shut within Australia. To be honest, 23 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 1: this is the time when we need to increase our 24 00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 1: economic activity and really people losing their jobs. I mean 25 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 1: it's horrible enough having to deal with a deadly virus, 26 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 1: but now we're dealing with the economic shock of that. 27 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 1: And in New South Wales, to be fair, we're the 28 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,040 Speaker 1: largest state. Yes, we did have the most cases. That 29 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,199 Speaker 1: most of our cases are some people coming back from overseas, 30 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 1: and we've actually taken care of people on behalf of 31 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:21,040 Speaker 1: the whole country. So we've had sixteen or seventeen thousand 32 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 1: people come through our hotel quarantines and a large proportion 33 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 1: of those actually don't even live in New South Wales. 34 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 1: They live in other states. So we've taken care of them, 35 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 1: kept them in quarantine, they haven't had to pay for it, 36 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:35,679 Speaker 1: and then once we know they're clear of the virus, 37 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 1: rather they've been able to go home, and most of 38 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 1: our cases are still coming through that quarantine process. What 39 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 1: we do need to keep an eye on is the 40 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: community's community transmission, where the state with the highest population 41 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: with the most density populated people, and we need to 42 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: be careful of those demographics in relation to the virus. 43 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: But ironically we've had cases from other states where people 44 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 1: have come to New South Wales with the virus, so 45 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 1: we can't pretend that a border is going to stop that. 46 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: What we can do though, is give people good information 47 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: to stop the spread, to not leave home if they're 48 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 1: not well, not to turn up to vulnerable people or 49 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: compromise the health of those that are vulnerable. So most 50 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: of us are well aware of what the rules and 51 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: guidelines are, and so long as everybody keeps to those, 52 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 1: especially as we allow pubers and clubs and restaurants to 53 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: have more people. I can't stress enough how important it 54 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 1: is not to have a group booking of more than ten. 55 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:31,679 Speaker 1: You can't anyway. You can't have more than a group 56 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 1: booking of ten. You can't have communal food balls, you 57 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:39,679 Speaker 1: can't have shared cutlery or you know, even being able 58 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 1: to go and grab the cutler from a particular location. 59 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 1: It won't be allowed. No buffet. I mean, life is different, 60 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 1: but that's okay. Until there's a cure of vaccine, we 61 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 1: just have to live in a safe way. And also 62 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: I think we you know, as of these we love 63 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: traveling overseas. I think it's actually a positive that we'll 64 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 1: all now can travel with it will not yet, but 65 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: hope fully trouble within Australia and discover parts of our 66 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: own country that we've never been to. I mean, I'm 67 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,119 Speaker 1: embarrassed to say there are things on my list I've 68 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: never done around Australia that I should be doing, so 69 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 1: I think there's opportunities for us to make the most 70 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: of what is. It has been a difficult situation, and 71 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:18,239 Speaker 1: just as isolation has brought some families together, I know 72 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: someone wanted to pull each other's there out. But yeah, 73 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: whilst it's allowed families to find a new way of 74 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 1: bonding and spending more time together, maybe being able to 75 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: travel within Australia is a new way for us to 76 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 1: awaken too the beauty of our own country and be 77 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,399 Speaker 1: appreciative of what we have here. So, you know, when 78 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 1: the border has come down, that's an opportunity for everyone 79 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 1: to explore that. But I also feel sorry for people 80 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 1: who live on our border communities, which is why we 81 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: keep our borders open. You know, Yeah, if you live 82 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 1: on a border community and you your doctors on the 83 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: other side of the border, or your grandmother or you know, 84 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: supporter communities, that the boundary is just an artificial mate. 85 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 3: It's just a pain in the neck when you live 86 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 3: up there. Just with the daylight saving time. My in 87 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 3: laws live up there and it's a constant pain in 88 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 3: the neck. You tweet head to the Gold Gold coase. 89 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 3: It's constant, constant juggling act. How do you feel about 90 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 3: the NRL getting crowds back to the stadium. 91 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: Oh, look, I think you know, they're always ambitious. I 92 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: think wonder Lia is extremely ambitious. We're going to I mean, 93 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: look we've been, we've been leading the nation and where 94 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: we can use restrictions, but we're not going to defire 95 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 1: the health advice. We're not going to do anything which 96 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: is going to take away all the good work we're doing. 97 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,840 Speaker 1: And that's why I know a lot of people are 98 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 1: upset because we haven't increased the number of people we 99 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: can allow places of worship or at or other events. 100 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,919 Speaker 1: But our experience of overseas tools us large gathering spreads 101 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 1: the virus and we just have to be extremely careful. 102 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: So we're working with industry on the plans and there's 103 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: a number of things on our list we have to 104 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 1: go through obviously, and we're making our way through them 105 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 1: and I'm pleased with how it's going. But it's all 106 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: up to us. It's all up to us to do 107 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 1: the right thing, to not get carried away and with 108 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: easing and these restrictions, just to be really sensible and still, 109 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: as I said, just be really sent still around those 110 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: most vulnerable, because we might be okay, but it's it's 111 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 1: others who are vulnerable who unfortunately are for coming to 112 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: the disease. 113 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 3: All you got to do is get Newcastle to take 114 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 3: on the Titans at A and Z Stadium and you'll 115 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 3: get way under twenty thousand. That would be incredibly optimistic. 116 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 3: So get that many people in. 117 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 2: There, a lot of social distancing the premier. 118 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 3: It's always a treat. If you could work on the 119 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 3: egg mandate for me, I'd be very appreciative. 120 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't know how it fits into the socialist 121 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 1: but she's going wrong though. 122 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,599 Speaker 2: I appreciate what she was carrying sid to share. 123 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 1: If she tried to share the egg with you, that 124 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 1: problem herself. 125 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 3: She's carrying it under an armpit. 126 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 2: I'm the only one infecting myself. You're quite safe, that's fine, Yeah, gladus. 127 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 3: It's always a treat. 128 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: Thank you for joining us, No, thank you to take 129 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 1: care see you guys.
