They will take effect from this Sunday for a month to June 13. A review will be taken after two weeks to see if the measures need to be adjusted further.
The new measures are:
1. Reduced group size from five to two people
The current permissible group size will be cut from the current five people to two. The cap of five distinct visitors per household per day will also be reduced to two distinct visitors per household per day.
In a statement, the task force said that individuals should continue to limit their overall number of social gatherings to not more than two per day, whether to another household, or meeting friends and family members in a public place.
