The Health Protection (Coronavirus) (Restrictions) (Scotland) Regulations 2020

Made

at 7.15 p.m. on 26th March 2020

Laid before the Scottish Parliament

27th March 2020

Coming into force in accordance with regulation 1(1)

The Scottish Ministers make the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by paragraph 1(1) of schedule 19 of the Coronavirus Act 2020 M1 (“the Act”) and all other powers enabling them to do so.

These Regulations are made in response to the serious and imminent threat to public health which is posed by the incidence and spread of coronavirus in Scotland.

The Scottish Ministers consider that the restrictions and requirements imposed by these Regulations are proportionate to what they seek to achieve, which is a public health response to that threat.

In accordance with paragraph 6(2) and (3) of schedule 19 of the Act, the Scottish Ministers are of the opinion that, by reason of urgency, it is necessary to make these Regulations without a draft having been laid before, and approved by, a resolution of the Scottish Parliament.

The Scottish Ministers are required to keep the need for these restrictions under review.

The need for the restrictions in these Regulations must be reviewed by the Scottish Ministers every 21 days, with the first review being required to take place by 16 April 2020.
