I.Šimonytė: will decide on cultural institutions at the municipal level
According to BNS, I. Šimonytė emphasized at the meeting that the opening of closed cultural institutions in municipalities where the incidence of coronavirus is lower could be considered.
“There were two main thoughts in the Board of Experts that priority should be given to those activities that are outdoors, and that are proposed in the resolution, open museums, a European park or a similar type of institution. With regard to other institutions that are closed, there have been repeated thoughts and I believe that we must try to go down that path, that we must find solutions at the municipal level, “he said.
The Capital MO Museum has set out to become the first to receive visitors with the highest security measures.

Commenting on the proposal, I. Šimonytė stated that it was received only on the eve of the meeting and “it is necessary to examine and see to what extent the proposals can be replicated in other institutions, such as other museums, other cultural institutions, and make a decision. that can be harmonized. “
He noted that morbidity rates vary greatly between municipalities, and “there are municipalities where the epidemiological situation is so good that it is somewhere in the yellow zone, and if Lithuania had such a situation, we could have allowed many activities in one modality or another. “.
“Obviously, either these municipalities will have to wait a long time for the worst situation to be handled by the municipality, or we have to go to some differentiated solution regarding what could happen locally in the more affluent and disadvantaged municipalities. The municipalities continue on the path of pilot models or special requirements ”, said the Prime Minister.
According to BNS, the MO Museum provided authorities with an action plan to ensure security requirements if it could be opened as a pilot project.
