Consult here Decree nº 3-B / 2021, of 19 January, which amends and republishes Decree nº 3-A / 2021, of 14 January, which in turn regulates the modification and extension of the state of emergency effected by Decree of the President of the Republic No. 6-B / 2021, of 13 January.
After consulting the Secretariat of State for Youth and Sports, we inform you that, as provided for in paragraph 4 of Annex I of the aforementioned legal diploma, golf courses must close, with practical effects since 00:00 on 20 January.
Under the new statute, only physical activity and golf training will be permitted by those who, under the terms of no. 2 of art. 34º have their activity equated with professional activity. Namely: “(…) high-performance athletes, from national teams of the Olympic and Paralympic modalities, from the 1st national division or from competition of corresponding competitive level of all the modalities of the senior men and women, those who participate in international championships the activity of companions of these athletes in adapted sports, as well as the respective technical and refereeing teams.”
All of these new guidelines are required to be attentive, understood and complied with. The fight against the pandemic that we live in, needs, as never before, the contribution of all.
