Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (Cogta) Minister Dr Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma gazetted the new Covid-19 lockdown regulations, hours after President Cyril Ramaphosa addressed South Africans on Monday evening.
From Tuesday, 2 February 2021, the easing of the various regulations come into place – including an extended curfew, the re-sale of alcohol and the re-opening of beaches and churches.
Ramaphosa said on Monday night that the government had taken a decision to lift restrictions following a significant decrease in the number of new daily cases.
The daily curfew will be in place between 11pm and 4 am.
However, establishments such as restaurants, bars, beaches and parks will have to close their doors at 22:00 to allow workers time to return home.
