Changes for Scottish hospitality

Nicola Starzan has announced changes to the hospitality restrictions in the proposed level system of local lockdowns.

The first minister told Hollywood that ministers are planning to set up an expert group to test low-level music regeneration at venues.

Closing hours for Level 1 and Level 2 venues will be increased from 10pm to 10.30pm, he added, adding that pubs and restaurants may be open to curfew in Level 3 but cannot supply alcohol.

Potential level FM in each region of Scotland:

Nicola Sturgeon said the North and South Lanarkshire Council regions are being considered for the highest level of restriction under the proposed tier system.

The first minister told Hollywood that the areas in the Middle Belt subject to austerity measures would probably move to Level 3, and the rest of the country to Level 2.

He added that local authority areas, including the Highlands, Shetland, Arkansas, Western Islands and Mori, would move to Level 1, and he hoped Dandio could move to Level 3.

Sturgeon: An expert advisory group will be established for reintroduction to licensed premises.

North and South Lanarshire may enter Level 4

Ms Sturgeon said the high incidence and hospitalization in North and South Lanarkshire meant these areas were being considered for the 4th tier of the new tier system. He added that new statistics suggest that the spread of the virus in the region could be brought under control and would be considered before making a final decision.

Level 1 – Sturgeon at level 4

Messrs. Sturgeon said levels 1, 2 and 3 of the five-tier system would be similar to the various restrictions across Scotland from the end of the summer.

He explained that the highest level, level 4 involved with measures to close non-essential stores. He added that only 4 levels will be pressed only where absolutely necessary.

The Scottish Government will introduce ‘postcode checker’

Mess Starzan said a new postcode checker would allow the Scots to verify what restrictions their area included in the new five-tier system. He said the postcode checker would help clarify public health messaging.

Sturgeon: Increased incomplete testing for most vulnerable groups
