Updated 28th February 2021
There will be a further easing of COVID-19 restrictions introduced on Monday 29 March.
This weekend, singing is allowed in places of worship, as long as masks are worn and a one person per four square metre rule is observed.
If no congregational singing takes place, places of worship are allowed to have one person per two-square-metres with no maximum cap.
Up to 300 people can attend funerals and weddings, providing a two square metre rule is observed.
The COVID Safe Plan for Places of Worship strongly encourages electronic collection of worshippers’ names and contact details. Many parishes are doing this by online registration for Masses rather than a QR code and can continue doing so. Parishes may keep paper records and then transfer this data across into an electronic format. Record keeping is compulsory.
