Is this really such a big deal? 6pm on a Sunday for major supermarkets is pretty easy to work around.
I always found it incredibly annoying as a shift worker that grocery stores shut so early in some areas.
if you’re a shift worker surely you have other times available to do your shopping other than after 6pm on a Sunday? like Monday morning?
Just telling you how it was, life wasn’t easy to plan doing 12+ hour night shifts with everything closing early and opening later than I would have liked.
It may be easy to work around, but I don't think it needs to be enshrined in law.
I know Australian trading hours are often more permissive than European ones, but at least in those parts there are vending machines that dispense the essentials like bread milk eggs flour
