Western Australia will allow indoor and outdoor gatherings of up to 10 people...
These revised restrictions aimed to lift community spirits and is seen as the first step to kick start the real estate industry. Specifically, a maximum of 10 people will be allowed at such essential gatherings as weddings, funerals, home opens and display inspections (based on good physical distancing and hand hygiene), and outdoor personal training (subject to no training equipment is to be shared).
