Hon DAVID PARKER: The COVID-19 Public Health Response Act allows more targeted messages that impinge less on freedoms and economic output than Health Act orders. An example is level 2 restrictions on large gatherings while normal work and social interaction is largely allowed. If the new Act had not been passed or had not been renewed earlier this month, this would not have been possible. I was, accordingly, surprised to hear the Opposition claiming yesterday they had supported all COVID legislation when they actually voted against the Act, both when originally enacted and again when it was extended. That is an interesting series of facts.
