Aussie states and territories are continuing to ease their coronavirus-related restrictions.

On May 8, Prime Minister Scott Morrison released a three step plan for how coronavirus restrictions will be eased in the coming months.

In the first stage, restaurants and cafes will open – allowing up to 10 guests – and non-essential travel will be permitted. The second phase allows gatherings of up to 20 people in places like gyms, beauty shops, cinemas and amusement parks - with some interstate travel allowed.

The third phase involves gatherings of up to 100 people, with the opening of nightclubs, food courts and saunas. Plus, all interstate travel would be allowed.

We made a list of the rules which apply in each state and territory:
