The restrictions mean that premises cannot open before 6am and must close after 6pm every day and cannot sell alcohol at any time for consumption on the premises. Save for limited exemptions.
Takeaway services can continue to operate until 10pm providing food and drinks (including alcohol) for consumption off the premises.
Bingo halls, bowling alleys, casinos, cinemas and more indoor entertainment venues must also close from 6pm tomorrow.
These new restrictions come into force from 6pm tomorrow (4 December) and will be reviewed on 17 December.
