Face of Nation International : The Northern Territory will force interstate arrivals to quarantine in hotels for 14 days — with anyone arriving after Friday night required to pay the $2,500 bill themselves.
This week, international arrivals across the country were ordered to spend two weeks in quarantine in hotels organised by the states and territories and paid for by taxpayers.
But NT Chief Minister Michael Gunner said tighter measures were needed in the Territory to reduce the risk of coronavirus spreading throughout the community.
“When the threat from overseas grew larger, we acted,” Mr Gunner said. (Source: ABC News – Australia)
