For instance, if passenger arriving from an international sector, connecting onto domestic flight, we would suggest passenger to proceed to domestic lounge due to Custom, Immigration and Quarantine (CIQ) requirement. However, we will never insist on this, and we normally advice passenger to leave the lounge before boarding time as stated on passenger boarding pass for CIQ clearance.
They have admitted that they didn't do it right. What they didn't say is whether they would educate people on the desk so they understand the rules. I'm hoping that they will do that!
