23.01.2022 Due to the changing situation in New South Wales, we will be enforcing a hard border from midnight tonight . This means that only South Australians returning fr...om NSW will be allowed to enter, as well as people permanently relocating to SA. They will be required to self isolate in an appropriate location for 14 days. In addition there will be Essential Travellers who will be permitted to enter, including cross border community members. A 100km buffer arrangement will be in place for cross border communities including Wentworth and Broken Hill. It's essential that ALL travellers complete the Cross Border Travel application before they travel into South Australia. More information on the latest COVID-19 Direction will be available soon.

22.01.2022 Thank you to local teacher Nell Ward for sharing her recovery story - Nell, James and their children lost their home in the Cudlee Creek Fire and are rebuilding in Lobethal

Here is what we can tell you: As of 12pm today..., Friday 20 November 2020 exercise outside of your home with members of your household is permitted. Masks are not mandatory but are encouraged.

20.01.2022 I want to give you an update on the swift and decisive action we're taking to further strengthen our medi-hotel system. Based on expert health advice, we will ...implement eight specific actions, including transferring all positive COVID-19 cases from medi-hotels to a dedicated health facility. We will also ensure that the security of this facility is exclusively provided by SA Police and SA Protective Security Officers. I want to point out that while the recent independent review by Ms Jane Halton AO PSM gave South Australia's medi-hotel system a gold star, there is never zero risk of transmission with this virus. It's a nasty, silent enemy. And as every day, week and month passes, we're learning more and more about it. That's why we will not miss any opportunity to review our systems in real time and act. And these eight actions are an example of just that. I also want to highlight the wonderful work our front line staff have been doing right across the state. Your hard work and dedication is critical in keeping SA safe and strong Thank you.

17.01.2022 To every South Australian who came out and got tested, thank you. Testing rates like this are exactly what’s needed when you’re faced with a COVID-19 cluster. By working together we can keep SA safe and strong.

15.01.2022 The new Service SA office for the Hills will open this Monday 1 March and is located in the old Dick Smith store on Morphett Street Mount Barker - I’m pretty excited about it!

14.01.2022 IMPORTANT SAPOL UPDATE: South Australia Police and SA Health are monitoring closely the situation in New South Wales with an increased number of COVID-19 cases being reported today. The continued spread of cases in New South Wales is of particular concern. As the situation is volatile and changing rapidly, the South Australia State Coordinator Grant Stevens strongly urges all people from South Australia contemplating or intending to travel to New South Wales today; or in th...e coming days, to very seriously consider whether that travel is essential. Further, those people who are holidaying or travelling in New South Wales should consider returning to South Australia as soon as possible. The situation will be closely monitored overnight and reviewed again tomorrow morning. South Australia Police continue to have a presence on the New South Wales border to ensure all people entering the state from New South Wales have submitted a cross border travel application. This will ensure a record is maintained of those people entering the state, so if there is another outbreak, they can be contacted. For more information about other restrictions, go to covid-19.sa.gov.au/ or call the COVID Information Line 1800 253 787.
