A question on Werribee as Quarantine Station

Just a question on Werribee being used as a Quarantine Station, correct me if I am wrong or if someone can shed some light-

The Vic government have leased/hired Werribee for the months of November & December, apparently the horses are to do 2 weeks in NSW PRIOR to coming to Werribee.

Is the Quarantine station in NSW even set up as yet and have any horses started their quarantine in NSW for delivery to Victoria??

We are already in November and this means that even if the NSW quarantine is set up (in a green zone) we are at least two weeks away from receiving the first horses for quarantine at Werribee - How likely is is that all Quarantine will be completed by the end of December? How likely is it that the Victorian Government will decide that they require Werribee for longer than the current November/December booking? (How likely is it that Major competitions booked for February at Werribee will be going ahead?)

The Victorian Government no doubt made an offer 'to good to refuse' to Werribee Park who is no doubt suffering the effects of EI along with most other Equine related business and industry.
