With the gradual relaxation of restrictions on the new coronary pneumonia epidemic, the Victorian Government announced on the 20th that the Victorian Parliament is scheduled to resume the meeting in early June.
The Victorian Government’s official website reported that it was understood that the last meeting of the parliament was on April 23, when legislation was passed in an emergency to ensure the operation of government services and make critical investments in protecting the medical system. According to the details announced by the government, the two houses of parliament will meet on June 2-4 and June 16-18. After that, the parliament will arrange a winter recess and resume the meeting on August 4.
During the resumed session, additional sanitation measures will continue to be implemented. The number of parliamentarians and grassroots staff in both houses will also be reduced to better maintain the social distance limit. It is reported that the date of the parliamentary meeting may also be changed according to the epidemic situation and the recommendations of the chief health officials. The government will also recall parliament at any time if necessary.
