NEW RULES FOR MANDATORY RECORD KEEPING
Keeping a record of every place you visit especially by scanning QR codes is something everyone should do, wherever you go.
The Government has introduced new rules from today around mandatory record keeping. This is especially important in places where there is close contact between people, where it's harder to wear a face covering, and where the virus can easily spread.
Many businesses and services are already displaying QR posters and do a great job of encouraging customers to scan in. The new mandatory record keeping requirements will apply for places like health and aged care facilities, public facilities such as libraries, gyms, bars, restaurants, cinemas, night clubs, concerts, churches, and close-contact businesses like hairdressers.
