Queensland records no new cases of coronavirus overnight as Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk calls for exemption "loopholes" to be closed off after one of the state's positive cases was revealed to be a returning consular official who did not need to quarantine.
Ms Palaszczuk said she would be raising the issue of exemptions being granted to overseas travellers after the returned official, who lives in Queensland, tested positive yesterday.
"I don't think the time is right now for those exemptions," she said.
Ms Palaszczuk said it would be a "matter for the chief health officers" around the country to ultimately decide.
"I just don't think we need to have any elements of risk at the moment ... and if we can close off any of those loopholes it'll keep everyone safe."
Ms Palaszczuk also called on Queenslanders to continue to come forward for testing.
Queensland now has 12 active cases and 1,085 cases in total since the pandemic began.
All 105 residents at the Bolton Clarke aged care facility have returned negative results.
