*IANAL*
Reading the new Health (Amendment) (No. 3) Bill 2021, I can't find any mention of antigen/lateral flow etc. Only PCR. I believe the bill allows enforced quarantine at designated facilities for travellers who arrive without a negative PCR, and by absence of mention of LFD/antigen, requires a PCR for travellers
I couldn't find a Bill nor Act regarding the change for Friday, so I'm a bit confused. Did they make it up, then decide the actual law will be the contents of this Bill...?
