The local councils involved in the negotiations with the Government say these new measures “have been agreed to achieve a sustained reduction in infection rates, especially to help protect our vulnerable residents, the NHS and social care services.”
Nottingham becomes the sixth place to enter tier three due to high rates of Covid-19, following Liverpool, Greater Manchester, Lancashire, South Yorkshire and Warrington.
Due to the new tier three restrictions, pubs and bars that do not serve “substantial meals” will be forced to close, meanwhile there are also stricter restrictions on individuals seeing people outside of their households.
