Meeting of the Parliament (Hybrid) 03 February 2021
I will speak to two of the motions. One prohibits evictions from taking place in level 3 and 4 areas. Regulations also allow premises that have been required to close to the public to reopen for the purposes of their becoming vaccination venues, and require child contact centres to close. They impose a prohibition on people consuming alcohol in public places outdoors in level 4 areas, prevent customers from entering takeaway outlets in level 4 areas, and restrict to essential work only the ability in level 4 areas to carry out work or services for the upkeep and maintenance of homes. Those regulations came into force on 16 January.
The other SSI moves the isles of Barra and Vatersay to level 4 lockdown restrictions, and came into force on 20 January.
