The Australian Tourism Industry Council has called for the federal and state governments to take action by approving a proposed Three-Point Plan to minimise burdens from the lockdowns.
The three areas cover the following: having a targeted financial support program to support operations and staff, reintroduction of flexibility provisions in the Fair Work Act, and a detailed Covid 19 transition roadmap to provide certainty for recovery.
ATIC Deputy Chair Daniel Gschwind says “In our darkest hour, we are asking the government to stand with us”.
