Attending Council Meetings

To help keep us all safe from illness, Tasmanian Public Health advise that practising safe hygiene remains an important way to reduce the risk of illness. This includes sanitising your hands upon entering the building and staying at home if you are unwell.

Although not mandatory, mask-wearing is recommended for people at higher risk of illness, or have had a recent illness, especially indoors where maintaining physical distancing is difficult.
