Although the issue is not yet on the agenda of the Government meeting, the document was registered with the Ministry of Health (SAM) on Tuesday night.

The number of people in cars is limited.

It is proposed to limit the number of people in cars to 2, as in other public places, or limit the number of members to a family farm.

The drafters of the amendment to the decree stated that this measure would reduce contact between people and contribute positively to reducing the spread of the disease.

Therefore, it is proposed to prohibit the use of vehicles other than urban, interurban and suburban regular passenger vehicles or vehicles traveling to work to a maximum of 2 persons or groups of members of a family and / or a household.

Proposes a ban on practical driving training

SAM, taking into account the proposal of the Ministry of Transportation, proposes to prohibit practical training in driving vehicles during the quarantine period.

Current regulations prohibit the practical test of vehicle drivers, but not the practical training of vehicle drivers.

The issue of ring municipalities is not yet resolved

As Renatas Požėla, Commissioner General of the Police, said after the WEBS meeting on Monday, a great movement was observed in the circular municipalities by restricting the movement of people. People who lived in the districts went to the city to work and vice versa.

“The experience of the inspection carried out between December 18 and 20 showed that, given the objectively formed socio-economic ties of the population, there are a number of cases in which the movement of people to and from” circular “municipalities may be justified “, we wrote in the document.

However, so far these possible changes are not proposed to the Government.

It is explained that if the Government approved such an order, it would be done in the municipalities of Vilnius, Kaunas, Šiauliai, Panevėžys and Alytus.

“As of 2020. December 16 00:00 to 2021 January 3 24:00 On the territory of the Republic of Lithuania, the movement of people between municipalities is restricted, except in cases where they go to: the municipality from your place of residence; to a municipality other than your place of residence due to the death of close family members; work (in labor matters) when the workplace is in another municipality; to or from international passenger routes to or from airports , seaports, bus stations; on health services; for other objectively justified reasons of urgency, when it is unavoidable to go to a municipality other than the one of residence; when people living in the district and the city of Vilnius, the district and Kaunas City, Šiauliai City and District, Panevėžys City and District and Alytus City and District Municipalities move between the contiguous municipalities indic for objective reasons justified objectively ”, reads the document.

The draft resolution immediately states that this could further increase population movement, so it is necessary to discuss whether the change in procedure will not negate the goals of the quarantine.
