Written Statement: Review of the Health Protection (Coronavirus Restriction) (No.5) (Wales) Regulations 2020

Written Statement has been made by Mark Drakeford MS, First Minister:

The coronavirus restrictions were last reviewed on 18 June when we paused the full move into alert level one for four weeks. This delay will help to reduce the peak number of daily hospitalisations by up to half and provide time for more people to receive their second dose of vaccine.

This week we carried out the formal three week review of the regulations. We have carefully considered the data and evidence and confirm that the restrictions in place should be maintained until at least the next regulatory review which will take place by 15 July.

Information on the current restrictions in place is available on Gov.Wales.


Taking reasonable measures to minimise the risk of exposure to coronavirus in workplaces and premises open to the public

Guidance under regulation 18 of the Health Protection (Coronavirus Restrictions) (No.5) (Wales) Regulations 2020 has been updated to reflect the amendments which took effect from 21 June 2021.
