Around 5,000 inspections have been carried out by enforcement entities in bars, restaurants, hotels and other establishments across the Maltese Islands over the last seven days, resulting in 14 being fined in connection with breaches of rules for these establishments.

According to the latest government figures released on Monday, 456 fines were issued to people in Gozo and Malta by the relevant authorities regarding the enforcement of Covid-19 regulations.

The majority of the fines – 441 – were related to not wearing a mask, or for being in larger groups than allowed in public by law. 1 person was fined for not complying with the quarantine obligation.

The government said that while restrictions have eased, enforcement bodies have remained present. “We must continue to care for each other, as we continue to live by the rules that exist in the interest of everyone’s health.”
