"So far, there have been 3270 compliance checks carried out in the south, 2330 in the north and 4640 in the north-west," he said.

"Over the past four weeks, a total of 144 people have been charged or summonsed to appear in court for failing to comply with the direction of the Director of Public Health.

"In the North-West, a further 364 vehicle checks have been conducted."

Acting Deputy Commissioner Higgins said the majority of Tasmanians were continuing to comply with restrictions, but reports of non-compliance were being made and all were followed up by Tasmania Police.

"Police are continuing to use significant resources to ensure compliance of the restrictions, including numerous patrols, with covert and marked vehicles and the Westpac Rescue Helicopter when required, particularly in the North West.

"For those of you who are required to isolate, expect a phone call and a visit by police, TFS, SES or ADF personnel to check your identification.

"If you're not impacted by the new quarantine requirements, with the additional stronger restrictions on retail activity now in place in the North West - there are fewer reasons to leave your home."

He said residents leaving their homes or the towns they lived in should expect to be stopped and questioned about their movements by police.

Fines of up to $16,800 and six months imprisonment may be imposed upon those not abiding by the restrictions.
