04 February 2021

Amends/Commences: The Health Protection (Coronavirus, Restrictions) (All Tiers) (England) Regulations 2020
Comes into force: 16th December 2020
Jurisdiction: England

The Health Protection (Coronavirus, Restrictions) (All Tiers) (England) Regulations 2020 impose a new framework to suppress the Coronavirus (i.e. COVID-19) outbreaks across England. The framework introduces 4 Tiers (Tier 1 to Tier 4) to implement increasingly tighter restrictions on individuals and businesses.

Areas within the Tier System have been reviewed and changes have been made in order to reduce the spread of the Coronavirus (i.e. COVID-19) throughout England.

Restrictions are tightening and more areas are being classed as higher Tiers. Multiple areas within the east of England and London have been moved from being classed as Tier 2 areas to being classed as Tier 3 areas.
