COVID-19 update

Based on the latest public health advice and pending no new local cases, effective from 12.01am, Sunday, 14 February 2021, the transitional lockdown restrictions will be lifted for Perth and Peel.

From Sunday, 14 February masks will no longer be required to be worn either inside or outside. There will be no travel restrictions in WA, except for remote Aboriginal communities, and mandatory contact registration will continue.

Western Australians should continue to practise physical distancing where possible, maintain good personal hygiene at all times and get tested when unwell.

As was the case before the lockdown, public or private events involving more than 500 patrons that require local government authority approval will need an approved COVID Event Plan as part of that process.
