Officials are also looking at allowing some areas of Queensland in, excluding Brisbane and Moreton Bay areas recently considered coronavirus hotspots.

South Australia has already lifted border restrictions on Victoria, with the state recording five consecutive days of no new local cases of COVID-19.

New South Wales residents will remain locked out of South Australia with yesterday's local cases coming in at 27 and a surge in numbers expected in coming days.

Queensland recorded just one new local case of coronavirus yesterday.
