Special Committee on Covid-19 Response
Travel Restrictions
Mr. Niall Burgess:
That is true. As the health situation evolves in other countries and as our own public health advice evolves, our travel advice will evolve too. I do not want to go into speculation about where that may take us but from the start of this year, we have worked very closely with the Department of Health and the Chief Medical Officer to give advice which reflects both public health considerations here and the risks which one enters into by travelling overseas. That is not simply the risk from being in another country but the risk from undertaking travel too.
