(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Health Protection (Coronavirus, International Travel from China) (England) Regulations 2023 to correct an error in regulation 2 of those regulations. The effect of the error would be to limit the application of Part 2 of those Regulations to indirect arrivals from China whose journey involved no more than one stop, which is not in line with the policy intention.
An impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument.
1984 c. 22. Part 2A was inserted by section 129 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (c. 14).
