The method of collecting Vic patrons name & phone numbers in premises is not prescribed. Some places are using QR code’s, some are using pen & paper (with sanitiser).
Requiring QR code systems would be onerous for (very) small business, at a time when revenue has been non-existent for many months. It has little consequence to contact tracing.
