All travel exemptions for non-residents to Island suspended

All travel for non-residents with exemptions to travel to the Island are being suspended.

New travel restrictions coming into force at Midnight tonight have been announced by Chief Minister, Howard Quayle MHK, this afternoon in response to the discovery of a new strain of Covid-19 in the UK.

Those who already have a certificate will be permitted to travel, and those already in the system will be processed, but no new exemptions will be allowed.

The suspension includes application for travel on compassionate grounds.
