That's what he seems to be saying, although he could be more articulate. It sounds like there was a plan to re-open for tourists on Nov. 1, but that has changed.

Phase II is still in place, but no commitment to Phase III. The issue is that tourists generally can't book last minute. In my opinion, it would be better to provide target metrics, which, if met, would mean tourism would re-open on a particular date. So, for example, community spread is limited, testing capacity increased to a specific number, x# of quarantine hospital beds available.

This "go along and see what happens" is the kiss of death. Few people will book, and many will seek alternative destinations.
