KNOW THE LAW AND PROTECT YOURSELF FROM THIS MADNESS!
Our Constitution is the Supreme Law of the land. Any state law, act, mandate, directive that does not agree with the Constitution is null and void.
Read the Commonwealth of Australia Constitution Act 1901 Section 51 (xxiiiA). It clearly states that the government cannot force anyone to take any medical treatment.
Do not listen to lawyers or government people who try to claim that the Public Health Act overrides the Constitution. They are lying.
You do not have to comply with any of the following restrictions. If we all refuse to comply the government cannot do anything about it. We are many. They are few.
REFUSE TO COMPLY!!!!
COVID Safe Checklist for Restricted Businesses
Important
From Friday 17 December 2021, customers will be required to show proof of their COVID-19 vaccination status when they check into many Queensland locations and businesses that will be restricted to fully vaccinated customers and visitors.
NOTE: Under the Restrictions on Businesses, Activities and Undertakings Direction, all restricted businesses required to operate in accordance with the COVID Safe Checklist for Restricted Businesses must continue to use the checklist until 4.59am Friday 17 December 2021. Find out about the checklist required from 5.00am Friday 17 December 2021.
Find out more about:
- checking the vaccination status of customers
- Queensland’s public health and social measures that will be in place once Queensland reaches the 80% double dose vaccinated target.
Restrictions on businesses have been eased due to the great job Queenslanders have done in limiting community transmission of COVID-19. There is no longer a requirement for restricted businesses to operate under a COVID Safe Industry Plan or any of the ‘industry specific’ COVID Safe Checklists.
COVID Safe Industry Plans and industry specific checklists have now been replaced by the COVID Safe Checklist for Restricted Businesses (the Checklist).
The Checklist outlines the control measures that need to be implemented by restricted businesses to keep staff and customers COVID safe, and will promote consistency between different industry sectors.
Restricted businesses must ensure that a signed copy of the Checklist is displayed at the business premises.
