According to the prefect Etienne Guyot, it is a question of "better regulating the flows" and of "supporting the local economic life", in a very precarious health context.
The shops of Haute-Garonne will be able to open every Sunday in January, "insofar as they employ voluntary employees at Sunday work", specifies the official press release.
This prefectural decree authorizes the opening on January 10, 17 and 31.
But the shops will also be able to welcome customers on the 24th, "the first Sunday following the start of sales, according to the agreement of July 29, 2020 on the limitation of the openings of shops in Haute-Garonne on Sundays and public holidays for 2021".

With this decision, the authorities want to offer a breath of fresh air to the famous “non-essential” professionals, who had to lower the curtain during the second confinement, from October 30 to November 28.
