BUSINESSES are being reminded of new rules which came into force earlier this week.
A 10pm curfew for pubs, cafes and restaurants came into force along with a raft of other Covid-19 Secure safety guidelines on September 24.
The aim of the guidelines is to bring the spread of coronavirus under control.
Cinemas, theatres and concert halls can stay open after 10pm but only for performances that started before the curfew.
Licensed food and drink venues are now required to operate with table service only, with the exception of takeaways.
From September 28, further measures that will become law including businesses being banned from requiring isolating employees to come to work.
More will be included in the Covid-19 Secure guidelines from that date.
