PETALING JAYA: The National Security Council (NSC) has released details on the Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) for the Conditional Movement Control Order (CMCO).
The details were released on the NSC’s Telegram application page earlier today.
In the guide, it said that the SOP prepared is to ensure the health and safety aspects are taken into account in an environment where the Covid-19 outbreak is still a real threat.
“The SOP aims to reduce health risks to both the public and the business premises, while preventing the national health service from being stretched beyond its control,“ said the NSC.
“In the event of an increase in the spread of the Covid-19 outbreak, the Movement Control Order (MCO) or other action may be enforced. This will affect the country’s economic recovery efforts.
“Failure to comply with the SOP may result in legal action, withdrawal of operating license or any other related action,“ it said adding that the government, in collaboration with the Ministry of Health, the police, and other regulatory bodies will monitor and enforce the SOP to ensure adherence.
“Businesses are reminded to keep in touch with the regulatory body responsible for any recent developments.”
