Hi Kath,
Nothing here in Qld yet. Although at a company level we are looking closely at travel and touring and limiting non-essential travel.

Subject: [PAC Australia Board] Govt restricting travel
Dear board members,
Just curious if anyone working directly with government is experiencing any travel enforcements due to fuel prices? I’m aware that the federal government is imposing strict restrictions on employee travel and noticed this week that City
of Perth has banned all staff and councillor travel until 31 July.
I’m wanting to gauge the risk of travel restrictions that might affect people’s decisions to attend APAX (aside from the obvious risks related to costs to travel).
Any insights appreciated!
Many thanks
Katherine
