We've put together a brief explainer on the new COVID-19 lockdown laws in NSW. This is not legal advice but an attempt to aid understanding. 
We've had a lot of questions about the laws and there is a lot of confusion about what they mean for ordinary people.
A reasonable excuse is needed to leave your home. The laws list some of the reasonable excuses, but there may be others (it's a non-exhaustive list).
Some of these are quite clear while for others the intent is less obvious.
It's hard to justify police enforcing harsh penalties for laws that many do not know about or fully understand. This should be about public health.
We're urging people to err on the side of caution. The message is clear: stay home if you can.
Stay safe, wash your hands, look out for each other.
Will be hosting a Zoom tonight with @greencate about this - bring your questions and join us at 8pm us04web.zoom.us/j/642204719?pw… #nswpol
