Question:
To ask the Minister for Communities for an update on the restrictions in place for community and voluntary organisations, regarding meeting indoors and outdoors, and the use of community centres/halls; and when these restrictions are expected to end.

Answer:

Up to date COVID 19 information and guidance for individuals and organisations is maintained by The Executive Office, Public Health Agency and the Department of Health and can be found on the NI Direct website.

Community and Voluntary sector organisations should continue to apply the most up to date rules and guidance set by the Executive in the coming weeks and months as and when restrictions are eased.

My Department supports NICVA to provide advice and guidance to the Voluntary and Community Sector during the pandemic, including via its website and through regular direct communications on key issues and developments.
