The government wants to extend infection control measures in restaurants until July 1 next year, according to a memorandum from the Ministry of Social Affairs. In fact, the current law will expire at the end of the year, but now it is proposed that the restrictions that apply from this summer to, among other things, bars and restaurants continue.
“We have to persevere and persevere. Continuous measures are needed to slow the spread of the infection,” writes the Minister of Social Affairs Lena Hallengren (S) to TT. She continues:
“We propose that the current legislation for restaurants be expanded, with the same rules that now apply to counteract congestion and the spread of infections in, for example, restaurants and bars. This is important, because service points are places where you stay a long time and close to many others, which increases the risk of infection. “
It is considered necessary to apply until next summer
As early as March, regulations were issued allowing restaurants to remain open, while congestion was countered. It was a solution that needed to be implemented quickly, according to the minister.
“To give more perseverance to the regulations and to give better guidance to restaurateurs, the government drafted a law that has been in effect since last summer. That legislation expires at the end of the year, but is therefore considered to be in effect until the end of June next year. That is why we refer to this proposal. The Swedish Public Health Agency recommends that the law be expanded “writes Hallengren.
After the referral, the government, as usual, will analyze the comments received. The idea is then to present a bill with the proposal to extend the law as indicated above.
