The Health Ministry has announced that those on Viti Levu who are currently outside of the containment area they live in will be allowed to return to their homes from 4am today to 11pm Sunday.

Permanent Secretary for Health, Doctor James Fong says this includes those who are stuck in one containment area but who need to move to another containment area in which they reside and those in a non-containment area who need to move into a containment area.

Doctor Fong says this is a window for one-way travel only.

Those who enter a new containment area will not be allowed to leave until such time that the containment area borders relax.

Doctor Fong says as you travel, police will be taking contact tracing information at each border point to assist should you be considered a person of interest. He says he knows there are some people within a containment area who are looking to move to a non-containment area.

For those, the Permanent Secretary says they will work out separate dates for you.

Please note that these movements, once approved, will be limited to Viti Levu.

There are currently six containment areas across Viti Levu: Nadi, Lautoka, Rakiraki, Nausori, Suva and Lami.
