Covid restrictions are being loosened from this midnight Friday thanks to no new community cases over the last 10 days, and that means you will no longer need to wear a mask in shops, but it is still recommended you do – it is not compulsory from Friday, though.

 

But public transport uses will still need to wear a mask, that is compulsory still.

 

There are also changes to how many people can visit your house – 30 guests max (including children).

 

Outdoor gatherings – 50 people in total.

And you can sing indoors again – up to five people.

 

Weddings/funerals – up to 300 fully seated (one person/4 mtr rule). But no singing or dancing.

 

Smaller hospitality venues – up to 25 people

 

Masks recommended but NOT compulsory at retail shopping venues

 

Masks still COMPULSORY on public transport, in places of worship, at hairdressers, beauticians and gaming rooms and front-of-house hospitality staff.
