The mayor of Nice Christian Estrosi - SYSPEO / SIPA

The news just came. The city of Nice has decided to repeal its decree which required the wearing of masks in public spaces from this Monday. She indicates that the decree published in the Official Journal in the morning and fixing the rules of the deconfinement had to make her adapt her text, challenged in court by the League for Human Rights.

Without further details on its content for the moment, the city said that a new by-law should be issued in the course of the afternoon.

"Adapt it to the new legal basis of the decree"

“A decree is issued, therefore, automatically, the legal basis changes. We are repealing our decree to adapt it to the new legal basis of the decree, we are told by the town hall. But we are delighted with the decree that the government has just taken which reproduces almost all of the measures that Christian Estrosi had decided to take. "

While it provides for an obligation to wear a mask in public transport and encourages it "as long as the rules of physical distance cannot be guaranteed", the decree does not, however, enact binding provisions in public spaces .
