One-Week Grace Period For Mall, Building Operators Before Entry Rules Kick In

There will be a week’s grace period from Oct 13 to Oct 19 for mall and building operators to become familiar with the latest differentiated safe management measures.

This will include a framework to allow unvaccinated people access to childcare and medical services located in buildings like malls.

The Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI), Enterprise Singapore (ESG) and the Health Ministry, in a joint statement yesterday, said they are aware of people’s concerns about the need for some unvaccinated people to enter malls for such services.
