Coming into force
The Secretary of State makes the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by sections 45B, 45C(1), 45C(3)(c) and (4)(d), 45F(2), (6) and (7) and 45P of the Public Health (Control of Disease) Act 19841.

These Regulations are made in response to the serious and imminent threat to public health which is posed by the incidence and spread of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in England.

The Secretary of State considers 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.

The Secretary of State also considers that the restrictions imposed by the following Regulations, as amended by these Regulations, are proportionate to what they seek to achieve, which is a public health response to that threat—

(a)

the Health Protection (Coronavirus, Restrictions) (No. 2) (England) Regulations 20202;
(b)

the Health Protection (Coronavirus, International Travel) (England) Regulations 20203;
(c)

the Health Protection (Coronavirus, Restrictions) (England) (No. 3) Regulations 20204;
(d)

the Health Protection (Coronavirus, Collection of Contact Details etc and Related Requirements Regulations 20205;
(e)

the Health Protection (Coronavirus, Restrictions) (Obligations of Undertakings) (England) Regulations 20206;
(f)

the Public Health (Coronavirus, Restrictions) (Self-Isolation) (England) Regulations 20207.

In accordance with section 45R of the Public Health (Control of Disease) Act 1984, the Secretary of State is 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, each House of Parliament.
