Students are returning to the classroom today, cafes and pubs can welcome back customers to dine in, and up to 10 people can now gather outside.

Regional businesses will check IDs to make sure Melburnians aren't visiting without a valid reasonStudents are returning to the classroom today, cafes and pubs can welcome back customers to dine in, and up to 10 people can now gather outside —Kristen Waldron is a deputy principal at the Hamilton and Alexandra College in Hamilton in the state's west.She said the announcement came as a complete surprise to staff.

"We do know that the response will probably be slow because people are feeling nervous, after so many lockdowns, to travel internally in regional areas."Mr Sherawara said the cap of 100 people per venue was still quite restrictive for large venues like his. "Some people are apprehensive and have lost total zest to go anywhere. Others are excited to come but don't realise they aren't allowed to," she said"We're chasing it all up, but it's interfering with businesses because we will have a lot of empty cabins this weekend and there's no guarantees we will fill them all up."She estimates her business would have lost around $40,000 if the lockdown had lasted the full seven days, as expected.
