No Extensions for Nightclubs
posted (July 3, 2020)
And a big part of keeping the weekend under order is the denial of extensions for nightclubs. The Commissioner explained:

Chester Williams, Commissioner of Police
"While yes there's no curfew we have made recommendations to the ministry of labor or local government to advise the different liquor licensing boards not to grant any extensions at this time. So we expect that these liquor establishments will close at the ordinary hours the nightclubs close at 12 midnight I think on Sundays, Tuesdays, and Thursday, Friday, Saturday at 2 am so we expect that they will not go beyond those hours and the police will be made frequent checks at these night clubs and anyone found not complying with the quarantine elements of the quarantine act we are going to close them down so, I want to sound the warning that while yes these establishments are open it is no license for people to believe that they will go to these establishments and do as they please we still have the risk of the COVID-19 virus and we have a responsibility to keep our country safe and the police are going to do our part to keep our country safe."
