Human rights advocates call on government to assist ‘stranded’ Victorians

Human rights advocates say they are “very worried” for Victorians stranded in ‘red zones’ interstate.

The state government recently introduced a ‘traffic light’ permit system for anyone wishing to enter Victoria, regardless of where they are coming from.

Spokesperson for Liberty Victoria Michael Stanton says it’s essential the government justify the restrictions on people’s movement.

“There’s over 4000 Victorians who are stranded in red zones who want to get home,” he told Tony Jones, filling in for Neil Mitchell.
