Berejiklian eases business restrictions as Andrews doubles down

NSW venues will be allowed to open to greater numbers of patrons on Friday after the Berejiklian government eased hospitality restrictions, but their southern counterparts in Victoria remain indefinitely locked down despite the state recording fewer new coronavirus cases on Tuesday.

Five hundred people are now allowed at outdoor concerts in NSW, up from just 20, and density at outdoor venues will double from one person every four square metres to one every two from Friday.
