Beach hours have been extended to midnight.
This is contained in the new curfew order as agreed by Cabinet on July 1st.
Premier and Minister of Finance, Andrew Fahie said however that the 5am to 12 midnight curfew remains for the next two weeks.
The Premier also said they will allow private vessels to continue to use Territorial waters during full daylight hours from 5:01 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.; and allow ferries to operate in Territorial waters between 5:00 a.m. and midnight.
Premier Fahie said that Cabinet endorsed the COVID-19 guidance for Churches and other Faith-based Organisations, subject to review on a weekly basis.
According to him, there seemed to have been misconceptions following a stakeholder consultation meeting as the Ministry of Health and religious leaders were working together to develop the guidelines for Cabinet’s consideration.
