The International Travel Regulations impose requirements on persons entering Wales after having been abroad. They include a requirement for persons arriving in Wales to isolate for a period determined in accordance with the Regulations. The requirements imposed by the International Travel Regulations are subject to exceptions, and certain categories of person are exempt from having to comply. Persons entering Wales after being in one or more of the countries and territories listed in Schedule 3 to the International Travel Regulations are not required to isolate. The countries and territories listed in Schedule 3 are referred to as “exempt countries and territories”.
Part 2 of these Regulations amends the list of exempt countries and territories.
Regulation 2 of these Regulations amends the International Travel Regulations to remove Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba, Poland and Turkey from the list of exempt countries and territories.
Regulation 3 of these Regulations makes transitional provision relating to these countries’ and territories’ change of status. The transitional provision addresses a potential area of doubt in terms of the effect on the operation of the International Travel Regulations, of the amendments made by regulation 2 of these Regulations.
In Part 3 of these Regulations, regulation 4 corrects a technical error identified in the Welsh language text at regulation 3 of the Health Protection (Coronavirus, International Travel) (Wales) (Amendment) (No. 12) Regulations 2020.
The Welsh Ministers’ Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to these Regulations. As a result, a regulatory impact assessment has not been prepared as to the likely cost and benefit of complying with these Regulations.
