Curfew shifted to 10pm, intra-provincial travel allowed
South Africa’s tourism sector has been struggling throughout lockdown.
Minister of Tourism Mmamoloko Kubayi-Ngubane hosted a digital briefing on Thursday, July 30 on what the new concessions for the tourism industry will be going forward under lockdown Level 3.
Some of the new changes include the current 9pm curfew being extended until 10pm, and leisure travel within respective provinces is now permitted as well.
“In response to this challenge, Cabinet has agreed to move the curfew to start at 10pm to allow for uninterrupted dinner service at restaurants,” the Minister said. “To comply with the current curfew regulation, restaurants are unable to serve dinner to their customers which means that they are unable to operate at peak time of their business day.”
