Hi All,
For your info I just received this info from another local car club...
IMPORTANT INFO FOR OUR CLUB MEMBERS, REGARDING CHANGES TO HISTORIC/CLASSIC VEHICLE USE, DURING COVID-19.
They’re suggesting that you’re not to use your club rego vehicle, unless it fits the ‘reasonable excuse’ below. We’re providing the below, for your info. It’s copied and pasted directly:
Explanatory note
The object of this Order is to give certain Ministerial directions to deal with the public health risk of COVID-19 and its possible consequences.
In particular, this Order directs that a person must not, without reasonable excuse, leave the person’s place of residence. Examples of a reasonable excuse include leaving for reasons involving—
(a) obtaining food or other goods and services, or
(b) travelling for the purposes of work or education if the person cannot do it at home, or
(c) exercise, or
(d) medical or caring reasons.
In addition, this Order directs that a person must not participate in a gathering in a public place of more than 2 persons. Exceptions include—
(a) gatherings of members of the same household, and
(b) gatherings essential for work or education.
Section 10 of the Public Health Act 2010 creates an offence if an individual fails to comply with a direction with a maximum penalty of imprisonment for 6 months or a fine of up to $11,000 (or both) plus a further $5,500 fine each day the offence continues. Corporations that fail to comply with a direction are liable to a fine of $55,000 and $27,500 each day the offence continues.
The Order will expire at the end of 29.06.2020 unless earlier revoked.
The Public Health (CODID-19 Gathering) Order (No 3) 2020 is revoked.
This clearly indicates that our non-essential use of our vehicles is forbidden.
To all our members and families,stay safe regards Felix
