I'm taking the view that unless I see something from the relevant authority stating that gardeners can work, with full details, I am taking a 1 or 2 week holiday at home, not going to bust a boiler over it, and definitely not taking advise from some facebook page, where they don't need to pay the fine if we do the wrong thing.
I had a client ring me yesterday saying that her chemist said that I could work, LOL
hi everyone,
this I found on gov site and there is no gardeners

That group are "kinda, not really" our governing body being that they are the ones who go into bat for us and meet with the government directly on our behalf representing the whole landscape industry in Victoria. Unfortunately they update their facebook page faster than their website and unfortunately they get the same on the fly unclarified responses we all read later on the government websites. What we can do is ring the Department of Jobs Precincts and Regions direct, but they can be clear as the media releases at best... record the conversation, keep the receipt number and act on that. But where's the fun in that!

Anything Ian says may or may not be garbage, it may also be his own opinion or it may not be his opinion at all, it may just be something he felt like stating anyone following his advice does so at their own risk and may be doing something Ian would actually advise against.
