From 11 January, Bishop Ken has let us know Queensland Government directives that will affect capacity limits for Mass and other liturgies.
· Masks are mandatory in indoor settings and choir singers and cantors are not exempt. As singing remains a high risk activity, cantors must keep their masks at all times during the liturgy.
· Hospitality is also a high risk activity during this peak infection time. It is strongly recommended that hospitality events and gatherings, including those after Masses, be suspended.
Occupancy:
Masses, baptisms, and other liturgies (except funerals and weddings), whichever is greater:
Funerals conducted indoors may accommodate no more than 1 person per 2 square metres up to 200 people; or 100 % of seated venue capacity with ticketed and allocated seating (no maximum applies). Vaccinated and unvaccinated attendees may attend.
Weddings: Only fully vaccinated guests and staff, or those with a medical contraindication which is recorded against their Qld Check In App, are permitted to enter and remain. In this case, there are no density limits.
* If any persons attending a wedding are unvaccinated, including members of the wedding party and officials, a maximum of only 20 people can attend.
* Places of worship must continue to ensure attendees are registered via the Check-in Qld app and operate in accordance with the COVID Safe Checklist.
Masks: Anyone entering a church or workplace (over the age of 12) is required to wear a face mask. This includes when people are seated or moving around. This also includes parish staff working in a parish office. The following exemptions apply:
