The tourism minister implemented four changes to lockdown regulations to ease restrictions on the tourism sector.
“Permitting hunters to sleep over at their hunting destinations, within the province in which they live, is in line with this week’s cabinet decision to ease restrictions around leisure travel,” said Creecy.
Four changes to lockdown regulations have been implemented to ease restrictions the tourism sector.
Creecy said her department saw it fit to amend the directions to remain within the framework of regulations published in terms of the Disaster Management Act. The updated amendments will be published soon.
“In light of the announcement by the minister of tourism that people will be allowed to, among others, leave their homes for leisure purposes within their province of residence, the department of environment, forestry and fisheries is, therefore, amending the directions for the biodiversity sector to align with such,” said Creecy.
Last week, Creecy announced that SA's botanical gardens in all eight provinces would open from Monday, but “for exercise purposes only”.
She said reopening the botanical gardens “will allow those who frequent them for exercise to again enjoy the privilege”.
However, access to and use of the gardens is subject to strict Covid-19 health protocols that prohibit social gathering, picnics and public events.
She said daily access to the gardens would be monitored, and limited once the safe carrying capacity for the area has been reached.
“All visitors will be required to wear cloth face masks, be temperature screened, and complete a tracing register. Gate opening and closing hours will be strictly adhered to,” she said.
According to amended lockdown rules published last Wednesday, zoos, aquaria, animal rehabilitation facilities and sanctuaries that are normally open to the public remain closed.

Dundee-born Keith, who was brought up in Perthshire, was attached to several top golf resorts including Sprowston Manor and St Ives Hunts in England before returning to Glasgow to take up the general manager post at Bothwell Castle in 2015.
The 40-year-old, a top amateur golfer who turned professional with a plus-three handicap, decided in his early 20s to embark on a career in club management.
He said: “I’m very much looking forward to my new role at Royal Aberdeen which is consistently ranked as one of the top links golf courses in the world.
“The club has strong traditions and a proud history, having hosted a number of important professional and amateur events. Earlier this year, Royal Aberdeen hosted the R&A’s Amateur Championship for the first time.
“I look forward to meeting the members and working closely with the club’s management team and staff.
“My partner Anna and I are excited about relocating with our young son Rory to Aberdeen and moving closer to friends and family in the area”.
Royal Aberdeen captain Shaun George said: “We are delighted to welcome Keith.
Keith takes over from Ronnie MacAskill, who spent 43 years at the club in various roles including club professional and secretary.When the wheels of the economy start moving and business owners begin to survey the remains of their pre-pandemic lives and goals, the questions that will be top of mind are: What now? Can we rebuild? Should we? While there are government programs that may help if accessed quickly, the mental chore is likely to take a toll on an already taxed psyche.
Small business employs the majority of Americans and has taken an unprecedented lashing. In 2019, 30.7 million small businesses employed 59.9 million people in the United States, or 47.3% of the private workforce. That very often looks like one owner and their one employee — a small operation at the time of extraordinary tasks to perform. What will it take to rebound when there are 58 million jobs at stake?
One thing people will want is answers — and they'll want them quickly. Many possibilities will be among them, and as such, real estate business owners need to organize themselves before (and after) restarting their enterprise.
One thing that you can do is prepare a list of actions that you know must be considered to restart your enterprise. Everybody’s list will look different, but a few things to consider are the following:
Utilities
Are your utilities on? Will you have sufficient power to start up and assess your equipment? Are the water and lights on? Each business operates with different types of equipment. Ensure you have or know when you will have these services by communicating with your providers.
Insurance
Put it on your list to have a policy review with your insurance agent. Ask about coverages that you currently have that may apply in your current situation, such as business interruption insurance. See if there are any changes that can be made now that may benefit you in the future.
Sort your mail before opening it by sender or subject — utilities, taxes, vendors, customers, etc. Then you will be able to delegate or address as you see fit. Review and archive important voicemails and other communications as well.
Employees
Once you see what you are facing on the ground and have gotten your head around things a bit, speak with your employees, and devise a triage plan for the business. You will need to be patient and give them direction. Perhaps the way to retain some employees will be to devise a job-sharing program to spread the available hours over needed employees. You need to retain their experience, and they may be relieved by the program. You can look at it as a retreat and get input that perhaps you wouldn’t have considered before. Build your team again. The employees are your most valuable asset. Delegate to and trust in them.
Landlord
After you have assessed your business property's state, now you will have to make arrangements with the landlord for moving forward. You both are pulling for your success, so there is hope. Asc
