Herald Sun (Australia) - Subscription at source 30/9/2024 News The ‘morally wrong’ restriction the police refused to follow AUSTRALIA: NSW’s COVID-19 public health orders were a one-size-fits-all approach forced upon the police, who struggled to decipher the ever-changing rules they did not request nor want, the state’s former top officer has told a panel of business and community leaders. The former NSW Police commissioner Mick Fuller, who led the force throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, said updates to the health orders – which dictated what people could and could not do as NSW Health tried to stem the spread of the virus – often made little sense and were not always enforceable. The orders made under the Public Health Act covered a range of restrictions at different stages of the pandemic, from how many guests could attend a wedding or funeral, to patron numbers in cafes and restaurants, trading rules and social distancing. Even who could take to a dance floor was at one stage determined by a health order. A panel of six experts – which included Fuller – convened by The Sydney Morning Herald to interrogate NSW’s approach to lockdowns and policing agreed that the health orders lacked clarity, should have been more localised and continued for too long once COVID-19 vaccines were available. The health orders also risked creating serious social division.
