Gov’t grants limited curfew exemption permits — Daoud

AMMAN — Minister of State for Prime Ministry Affairs Sami Daoud on Saturday said that permits exempting some citizens from the nationwide curfew issued by the Prime Ministry and the National Centre for Security and Crisis Management are issued in limited amounts, only in cases of extreme necessity and for specific and documented names.

He stressed that, for security purposes, the names and national numbers of employees who were granted permits to sustain the work of their institutions must be shared with government work continuity committees no later than Monday evening.

Daoud noted that, in the event that an institution does not provide the Prime Ministry with the names and national numbers of its employees who obtained permits, the permits will be cancelled by the Public Security Department, the Jordan News Agency, Petra reported.
