NSW has recorded 22 new cases in the latest 24-hour reporting period, with eight new cases linked to a growing cluster at Tangara School for Girls, at Cherrybrook, Premier Gladys Berejiklian has announced. Follow the lastest COVID-19 coverage here:

NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian has said authorities are working to provide 100 Canberrans stranded in Victoria with a pathway back to the ACT after they were previously denied entry into NSW to drive home.

The Premier said the operation, which has not yet been finalised or confirmed, would have to not just involve the group being escorted for their journey but also being monitored. Why the Andrews government did not put police or the ADF in charge of the crucial quarantine program has been a contentious question since outbreaks among security guards at hotels have been identified as the likely source of Victoria's second wave of COVID-19.

Tangara School for Girls, at Cherrybrook in Sydney's north-west, is emerging as a coronavirus hotspot in the city.Edwina Pickles The Premier added that coronavirus containment would be a "daily battle in NSW", encouraging people to come forward for testing after 13,000 tests were recorded in the latest reporting period, a drop in previous days' rates.This parliamentary committee makes for great listening. If you're not already tuned in, you can watch the Victorian hearing in the post above.

Mr O'Brien pressed the Premier on why the decision was made to use private security guards, to which Mr Andrews responded that security guards were used in other hotel quarantine programs in other states.As he has done during his daily press conferences in previous weeks, Mr Andrews deferred further questions about the hotel quarantine program to the inquiry headed by Justice Coate, which is due to hold its first public hearings on August 17.

Dear Premier, you have done a good job, but time for mandatory masks. Now.

Gee all those arseclowns bagging Dan and Victoria must be shitting themselves about now.

Now, when I’m at the shopping centre I leave as soon as school is over & the local school kids start to flood the place.

Sandra_Sully Don't see people going on about NSW like Vic, oh that is right its a liberal state.

And it won't improve anytime soon with old lady Gladys and the happy-clapper Morrison running the show. They have proved totally incompetent and thus far unaccountable, Ruby Princess anyone, yet Andrews gets crucified

The Armenian Australian Berejiklian is still whipping the Anglo Australian Andrews!

Private schools, private care homes! A pattern?

Cluster here, cluster there. People, children getting infected. This is all avoidable and the direct result of Morrison and Gladys refusing the elimination strategy. Madness. Morally bankrupt and abandoned duty of care to protect lives and livelihoods.

Schools are safe, though. ScottyTheSaviour told us and we have to believe everything he says.

Shut the borders, Victoria needs to protect themselves from these NSW people.

But wait, aren't children and teachers magically protected from Covid? Weren't teachers just being political and over-dramatic about their concerns for school safety? Eyeroll.

Many parents in NSW who keep kids home have received phone calls from NSWEducation and were threatened. Many had to send kids back to the dangerous classroom despite the risks and concerns to their families. This is crime! auspol
