‘Two people have been arrested after allegedly trespassing at a home in the Sutherland Shire today,' a statement said.

'Police will allege they found a man and woman standing inside the perimeter of the residence.

'A 33-year-old man has been charged with enter prescribed premises of any person without lawful excuse and insight to the commission of crimes.

'The Woolongong man has been granted conditional bail to appear at Sutherland Local Court on Thursday 13th February 2020.

'An 18-year-old woman has been charged with enter prescribed premises of any person without lawful excuse. The woman from Fairy Meadow has also been granted conditional bail to appear at Sutherland Local Court on Thursday 13th February 2020.’

'Officers from Sutherland Shire Police Area Command were called to a home in Dolans Bay following reports a 33-year-old man and an 18-year-old woman had trespassed on the property.

'They were arrested and taken to Sutherland Police Station.'

It comes as the embattled prime minister defends his handling of the bushfire crisis, which has seen him criticised by locals in the fire-ravaged town of Combargo.

Palatial homes in the elite area of Port Hacking, boasting views of Dolans Bay, often sell for upwards of $3 million.

Mr Morrison's home, which he shares with wife Jenny and daughters Abbey and Lily, is a more modest single-story house away from the waterfront.

The prime minister has previously spoken about his love of his modest family home, preferring to stay there instead of the grand Kirribilli House on the Sydney Harbour.

As the leader of Australia, Mr Morrison is entitled to live in the Gothic-style mansion built in 1858 which offers sweeping, world-renowned views of the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge.

'We're looking at that at the moment,' he said of moving house shortly after getting elected.

'It's not something we really thought much about and our girls go to school locally and they'll continue to do that and that's really important.

'Jen is keeping family life very much the same.'
