Effective at 12:01 a.m. on Wednesday, 5 January 2022, and apply for the next 21 days or until other notification is given. Limit gatherings in worship spaces to 50% capacity, two-metre (six-feet) physical distancing, which is already in place. The use of masks, along with contact tracing are all still mandatory. Summary to what changes will affect us: For the 21-day period, congregational singing is suspended. Cantors may continue to lead singing without a mask from the choir loft, by which three metre (ten-feet) distancing is observed. All employees are to work remotely unless the nature of their work requires otherwise. Staff must have permission from their supervisor before entering an office or church building. All meeting places, including parish halls, are to be closed. Volunteer groups, such as money-counters, would be allowed to meet in halls to a maximum of five people at a time.
