The key changes between Delta 2 and our previous understanding of Level 2 focus on mask use, mandatory scanning, and how many people can be in an inside space at any given time.
- Everyone aged 12 and over must legally keep a record of where they have been when visiting certain places such as restaurants, cinemas, concerts, churches, and close-contact businesses like hairdressers.
- A limit of 50 people applies for indoor gatherings, hospitality settings and event venues, 100 people for outdoor settings.
- Keep 2 metres apart from people you do not know in public, and places like retail stores, libraries, gyms and museums
- Face coverings are mandatory for everyone aged 12 and over in indoor public facilities like libraries, museums and shopping malls.
- Face coverings are mandatory for customer-facing staff at hospitality venues and public facilities.
