The Government directive issued at 8.00pm on Monday, March23rd, is clear and unambiguous: LOCKDOWN MEANS NO FISHING at all.
The directive is clear - we can't leave our homes for ANYTHING other than the following purposes:
-Shopping for basic necessities, as infrequently as possible
-One form of exercise a day – for example a run, walk, or cycle – alone or with members of your household
-Any medical need, to provide care or to help a vulnerable person
-Travelling to and from work, but only where this is absolutely necessary and cannot be done from home
-Police will have the powers to enforce the rules, including through fines and dispersing gatherings.
To ensure compliance with the instruction to stay at home, the government will:
-Close all shops selling non-essential goods, including clothing and electronic stores and other premises including libraries, playgrounds and outdoor gyms, and places of worship
-Stop all gatherings of more than two people in public – excluding people you live with
-Stop all social events, including weddings, baptisms and other ceremonies, but excluding funerals
-Parks will remain open for exercise, but gatherings will be dispersed.
