Police officers have been visiting community and religious leaders as well as business operators throughout the country as a proactive measure to ensure full compliance with the relaxing of certain restrictions.

They say they hope all Fijians will play their part as we need to work together and support efforts of returning to normalcy.

Police say as we all look forward to the next phase of the easing of restrictions from today, they reiterate the warning and reminder that COVID-safe measures must be strictly complied with at all times.

Meanwhile, 217 Public Health Infringement Notices were issued for failing to wear a mask over the last 48-hour period.

Police say the Southern Division continues to record the highest number of bookings for failure to wear a mask in public with 173 bookings made.

The Western Division recorded 15 cases, the Central division had 9, the North had 6 while the East had 4 bookings.

Other bookings recorded were for breach of curfew, failure to wear a mask in a public service vehicle and failure to maintain the 2-metres distance rule.
