(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Health Protection (Coronavirus) (International Travel) (Scotland) Regulations 2020 (“the International Travel Regulations”). In particular, they amend regulations 6A and 6B so that persons who fly to Scotland from England, where they would otherwise be required to comply with equivalent regulations in England, are required to possess a managed self-isolation package and to stay in managed accommodation.
The Regulations also amend regulation 9(1) of the International Travel Regulations to add the requirements in regulations 6A(2) and 6A(4) to the list of provisions breach of which is a criminal offence. Finally, amendments are made to regulation 11 so that an immigration officer may issue a fixed penalty notice for a failure to comply with regulations 6A(2) and 6A(4).
