Question

Course:Business Law

Frontier Entertainment Pty Ltd is a company that trades under the name “Concert Connections” (CC). In January of 2019, CC negotiated and arranged for an international acts to tour Australia in 2021.

On 15 September 2020, Tammy purchased from CC two tickets to the Ed Shearer concert in Brisbane on 07 January 2021. The reality is that as at 15 September 2020, due to the current COVID – 19 pandemic, it was highly unlikely that the Ed Shearer concert would proceed.

Jane purchased 3 tickets to the same concert as Tammy however unlike Tammy, Jane purchased her tickets in January of 2020, at a time when there was every

expectation that the Ed Shearer concert would proceed as expected as at that time, the future impact of the pandemic had not been fully realised.

Has CC acted in breach of the ACL by selling Tammy and/or Jane tickets to the Ed Shearer concert?

Answer 1

If COVID-19 is spreading in your community, stay safe by taking some simple precautions, such as physical distancing, wearing a mask, keeping rooms well ventilated, avoiding crowds, cleaning your hands, and coughing into a bent elbow or tissue. Check local advice where you live and work. Do it all!

What to do to keep yourself and others safe from COVID-19

• Maintain at least a 1-metre distance between yourself and others to reduce your risk of infection when they cough, sneeze or speak. Maintain an even greater distance between yourself and others when indoors. The further away, the better.
• Make wearing a mask a normal part of being around other people.

Here are the basics of how to wear a mask:

• Clean your hands before you put your mask on, as well as before and after you take it off.
• Make sure it covers both your nose, mouth and chin.

Here are some specifics on what type of mask to wear and when, depending on how much virus is circulating where you live, where you go and who you are.

• Wear a fabric mask unless you’re in a particular risk group. This is especially important when you can’t stay physically distanced, particularly in crowded and poorly ventilated indoor settings.
• Wear a medical/surgical mask if you:
  • Are over 60,
  • Have underlying medical conditions,
  • Are feeling unwell, and/or
  • Are looking after an ill family member.
• For more public advice on masks, read our Q&A and watch our videos. There is also a Q&A focused on masks and children.
• For health workers, medical masks are essential personal protective equipment when engaging with patients with suspected, probable or confirmed COVID-19. Respirator masks (such as FFP2, FFP3, N95, N99) should be used in settings where procedures generating aerosols are performed and must be fitted to ensure the right size is worn.

How to make your environment safer

• Avoid the 3Cs: spaces that are closed, crowded or involve close contact.
  • Outbreaks have been reported in restaurants, choir practices, fitness classes, nightclubs, offices and places of worship where people have gathered, often in crowded indoor settings where they talk loudly, shout, breathe heavily or sing.
  • The risks of getting COVID-19 are higher in crowded and inadequately ventilated spaces where infected people spend long periods of time together in close proximity. These environments are where the virus appears to spreads by respiratory droplets or aerosols more efficiently, so taking precautions is even more important.
• Meet people outside. Outdoor gatherings are safer than indoor ones, particularly if indoor spaces are small and without outdoor air coming in.
  • For more information on how to hold events like family gatherings, children’s football games and family occasions, read our Q&A on small public gatherings.
• Avoid crowded or indoor settings but if you can’t, then take precautions:
  • Open a window. Increase the amount of ‘natural ventilation’ when indoors.
  • WHO has published Q&As on ventilation and air conditioning for both the general public and people who manage public spaces and buildings.
  • Wear a mask (see above for more details).
