Not true. The Federal government have always allowed ordinary Australian citizens to leave Australia, and arrive back, on compassionate grounds, business purposes, etc, etc. You have to provide proof, necessary documentation, etc, but it has been happening all along.
Here's a snippet from the Department of Home Affairs website for permanent residents:
Australians and permanent residents
If you are an Australian citizen or a permanent resident you cannot leave Australia due to COVID-19 restrictions unless you have an exemption. You can apply online but you must meet at least one of the following:
- your travel is as part of the response to the COVID-19 outbreak, including the provision of aid
- your travel is for your business/employer
- you are travelling to receive urgent medical treatment that is not available in Australia
- you are travelling outside Australia for a compelling reason for three months or longer
- you are travelling on compassionate or humanitarian grounds
- your travel is in the national interest
.

Yep, Morrison and his goons didn't even want to get involved when people wanted to cross state boarders on urgent medical grounds last year, when the state borders were closed (playing political games), but they allow people to leave the country to get married??
