In the debate on the proposals to relieve the closure, treasury officials are pushing for some stores to be reopened as soon as next week, according to Channel 12.

Only stores flagged by the health authorities as meeting cleanliness standards would be allowed to open, the TV network says, citing suggestions raised at the meeting.

The officials are also debating opening special educational frameworks for babies and children up until the age of six whose parents return to work.

Health officials at the debate, which is ongoing after over four hours, are seeking a much more conservative and slow-paced reopening of the economy, it says.
