The ABC can reveal that Border Force command only realised the mistake more than 30 hours after passengers — including 13 who had been isolated in their cabins with fever — had left the ship.The new revelations challenge Border Force Commissioner Michael Outram's assertion in March that NSW Health was responsible for allowing passengers to disembark.

Indeed, the Federal Government has conceded in correspondence to the NSW Special Commission of Inquiry into the Ruby Princess that "practical" permission had been given for passengers to disembark, even if it had not been formally granted...."
