EXPLANATORY NOTE

These Regulations amend the Health Protection (Coronavirus) (Restrictions and Requirements) (Local Levels) (Scotland) Regulations 2020 (“the Local Levels Regulations”).
Schedule 7A of the Local Levels Regulations sets out certain restrictions on entering Scotland from, or leaving Scotland to go to, the common travel area. Regulation 3 amends schedule 7A so that, from 30 June 2021, the areas of Bolton Metropolitan Borough Council, Manchester City Council and Salford City Council are omitted from the list of places to which the restrictions in schedule 7A apply, so that the restrictions no longer apply in those areas.

Schedule 7A was inserted by S.S.I. 2020/389. Paragraph 4 of schedule 7A was relevantly amended by S.S.I. 2021/211and S.S.I. 2021/242.
