LSSC Director-General Mr Lanre Mojola said the government would punish non-compliant facilities, which contravened protocol for reopening the economy. He said Lagos has zero-tolerance for establishments that violate regulations and laws.
The DG said Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu reportedly implored business owners in the entertainment and tourism sectors to register on http://www.lasgsafetyreg.com to enable them to receive provisional safety compliance letters in preparation for their full reopening.
He said organisations that had collected their provisional compliance letters for sectors not opened yet, should remain closed but should ensure safety protocols are put in place in anticipation of the governor’s pronouncement for reopening of such businesses.
Mojola said the commission will enforce exercise across the state to identify businesses that have not registered and erring facilities, especially bars, gyms, lounges, spas and other social and religious centres.
