Minister: I understand the emotions
Minister Yesilgöz of Justice said this morning before the Council of Ministers about Valkenburg that it is up to the mayor how he deals with this. “I assume that the mayor looks at compliance, control and enforcement and makes those considerations locally. It is not the case that we prescribe that from The Hague.”
But she added that the rules are that the stores cannot open at the moment: “So I hope that a good conversation takes place. I understand the emotions, but I assume that everyone in Valkenburg is focused on what is happening in the hospitals and how we prevent too many people from getting seriously ill.”
In many other municipalities across the country, shops and catering establishments announced earlier this week to open tomorrow protest against the lockdown. The cabinet is expected to make a new one tonight Press conference It is known that people can go back to non-essential stores by appointment from Saturday.
