COVID-19 REOPENING AND OPERATIONAL PLANS
Extensive consultation was undertaken with park managers and the COVID-19 Taskforce to
develop reopening and operational plans for all holiday parks during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Risk registers have been prepared for each site with a suite of control measures implemented
including the staged reopening approach to ensure the risk of COVID-19 transmission is
minimised.

Current occupancy limits are being maintained with a watching brief in place given recent
increases in reinfection rates in Victoria and NSW.
