“Elections facilitate an essential service by providing for democratic representation for Queenslanders.
“However, we recognise that this is an extraordinary situation and are adapting our service model accordingly. This includes additional hygiene precautions and people management measures to be implemented at the nearly 1500 early voting centres and polling booths across Queensland.
“This is a unique and evolving situation and we will update voters if circumstances change. I encourage people to check the ECQ website for up-to-date information about how to cast their vote,” Mr Vidgen said.
Additionally, the ECQ will be implementing a range of new measures for people attending early voting centres and polling booths to vote in-person.
This includes sourcing additional supplies of hand sanitiser for use by voters at polling booths.
Voters are also encouraged to bring their own pen or pencil with them to vote as an additional hygiene precaution.
