Law correspondent Dr Dean Knight looks at how legal issues and challenges that arose over the lockdown haven't gone away, next week the High Court will hear the legal challenge to level 3 and 4 lockdown. He'll also talk about the legal authority for border quarantine and how a proposal to charge people for hotel and food costs butts up against an important human right.
