Health Minister Greg Hunt says the Morrison government would strongly support a decision by the National Cabinet to exempt people who are fully vaccinated from state restrictions.

Prime Minister Scott Morrison flagged the possibility on Sunday of people who had been fully vaccinated having less restrictions imposed upon them by state governments.

Mr Hunt said the decision is ultimately a matter for National Cabinet when it deliberates on it, but the potential for those who have been “fully vaccinated” to be exempt from restrictions would have the support of the Morrison government.

“There is strong support on the advice I have for those that have been fully vaccinated to have less requirements with less imposition where there has been the need to take action.

“I think the PM is absolutely in the direction of that as a nation.”
