Mr Andrews said the changes being announced today were about how Victorians lived their lives, but more changes would be announced on Monday about restrictions on workplaces.

He said there would be three categories of industries — some would continue to operate as normal, some businesses would have reduced output and therefore have fewer hours and staff, while others would close completely.

He said deciding which businesses were reduced was "quite a complex task" given Victoria had the biggest container port in the country.

"There are very detailed supply chains, there is a good deal of complexity to this issue, it is better to take a little bit longer to get it right," he said.

Changes to workplaces will not come into effect until Wednesday at the earliest, so there is "a little bit more time" to consult and try to get the restrictions right, he said.
So come Wednesday, which businesses will be affected do you think?

Apart from the food suppliers / supermarkets, etc, which others will be allowed to stay open? Which will have to be shut down completely?

Driving past Bunning at about 4pm today, the line was massive. Will Bunnings be allowed to stay open?
