Official Report: Minutes of Evidence

Committee for Health, meeting on Thursday, 10 September 2020


Members present for all or part of the proceedings:

Mr Colm Gildernew (Chairperson)
Mrs Pam Cameron (Deputy Chairperson)
Ms Paula Bradshaw
Mr Gerry Carroll
Mr Alan Chambers
Mr Alex Easton
Miss Órlaithí Flynn
Mr Colin McGrath

The Health Protection (Coronavirus, International Travel) (Amendment No. 5) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2020

The Chairperson (Mr Gildernew): SR 2020/163 removes the exemption from the requirement to self-isolate for certain health or care professionals. It amends the self-isolation requirements to ensure that such persons can receive care as required where they are self-isolating. It also omits Luxembourg from the exempted countries list and makes other minor amendments.

If members have no further issues that they wish to raise in connection with this statutory rule, I ask them to agree formally that the Committee for Health has considered SR 2020/163, the Health Protection (Coronavirus, International Travel) (Amendment No. 5) Regulations (NI) 2020, and, subject to the report of the Examiner of Statutory Rules, has no objection to the rule.

Question put and agreed to.
