The Contentious-Administrative Chamber, second section, of the Superior Court of Justice of the Canary Islands (TSJC), has ratified the extension of the limitation of the number of non-cohabiting people in social and family gatherings according to the level of epidemiological alert.
Thus, on islands with level 1 there will be a maximum of 10 people, on level 2 six people and on levels 3 and 4 a total of four people maximum, and the limit will never be exceeded even if there are cohabitants and non-cohabitants.
The measure, against which an appeal may be filed, remains in effect until 00:00 on September 30.
The order, made public this Thursday, considers that the limitation of people is a "proportionate measure" in defense of public health and does not restrict the fundamental rights of citizens, but rather modulates them but does not prevent them.
The chamber values that the Government requests a "scarcely invasive" measure with individual freedoms and with a limited validity in time, but warns the Executive that if in the future it takes more restrictive measures it must submit them to judicial ratification.
