ateries that fail to check the vaccination status of their patrons before granting them entry could face fines or closure, or both, while patrons who falsely declare their vaccination status could be fined or jailed, or punished with both. 


Sounding this note of caution in a statement on Friday (Aug 20), the Ministry of Sustainability and the Environment (MSE) said that from this weekend, "strict enforcement" would be taken against operators and diners who flout infection-control measures that are based on vaccination status. 


Ms Grace Fu, Minister for Sustainability and the Environment, said that during checks on more than 700 outlets and 2,000 diners last weekend, enforcement officers had identified seven operators that failed to check their patrons’ vaccination status. 


Nine patrons were also found to have dined in before they were deemed fully vaccinated, that is, two weeks after receiving the second dose of a Covid-19 vaccine.

Can give NEA officers to check eateries but they have no power to fine the eateries nor the people who falsely declare.
