Senior Minister Azmin Ali has warned state governments of possible legal action taken by industry players if they refused to reopen their economies under the conditional movement control order (MCO) as announced by the federal government.

This, he said, was based on a May 3 federal gazette that gazetted the conditional MCO under the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases Act 1988.
