This after Metro Manila Council (MMC) chairperson and Paranaque Mayor Edwin Olivarez was quoted in the media that the local government units (LGUs) in the National Capital Region imposed a curfew on minors aged 17 and below from 10 p.m. to 4 a.m.

Other LGUs in Metro Manila like Pateros imposed a curfew on minors.

Last November, the Muntinlupa City Council did not pass an ordinance imposing curfew on minors in the city but approved a measure restricting their movements under Alert Level 3.

The City Council passed Ordinance No. 2021-283 “regulating the movements of minors below 18 years old outside their residences” under Alert Level 3.

The ordinance will “be in effect for the duration of Alert Level 3 or any extension thereof, as may be determined by the IATF and/or other implementing authorities and shall cover all minors within the territorial jurisdictions of Muntinlupa City.”

Under the ordinance, minors must remain at home and are highly encouraged to avoid confined, crowded and close-contact establishments except as allowed in certain circumstances.

Under Alert Level 3, based on the ordinance, fully vaccinated minors in Muntinlupa are allowed to do the following:

-Intra-zonal and inter-zonal travel (only if accompanied by a parent or an adult guardian at all times)

- Purchase essential goods in permitted establishments (take-out food, medicine)

- Essential activities in permitted offices and/or establishments (work, government services, medical services)

- Individual non-contact outdoor sports/exercise (jogging, biking etc.)

- Group non-contact outdoor sports/exercise (team sports, doubles etc.)

Fully vaccinated minors are not allowed to indoor and outdoor dining, and indoor and outdoor cinema under Alert Level 3.

For unvaccinated minors, or those who have not received any vaccine, they are allowed to do the following under Alert Level 3 in Muntinlupa:

- Purchase essential goods in permitted establishments (take-out food, medicine)
