Just appeared on leigslation.gov in the last half hour...
At the moment it's a series of amendments to the existing "tiers" legislation (and also to the Coronavirus act that gives PCSO's various extra Covid powers). Main effects...
1. "to visit a public outdoor place for the purposes of open air recreation" is no longer a reasonable excuse.
2. "to visit outdoor attractions at an aquarium, zoo or safari park" etc has also gone.
3. "outdoor sportsgrounds or sports facilities" are no longer public outdoor spaces - think that means you can't meet there or use them for organised activities.
4. Under 18's are no longer exempt; i.e. they can no longer take part in organised outdoor sporting activities.
5. Parent & child groups are no longer exempt from the various restrictions.
6. Xmas tree sellers no longer allowed to remain open 😁
7. All areas in England are Tier 4.
So for anyone think of climbing - the only reasonable excuse for being outside your premises (which includes garden etc) is "that it is reasonably necessary... ...to take exercise outside". This means that any reasonability criteria applied by the Police (& courts) can only be more severe than before (because there's no longer a "visit a public outdoor place for the purposes of open air recreation" reasonable excuse).
Unlike the Government guidance, travel is still not mentioned at all, but obviously the distance and mode of any travel will impact on any assessment of "reasonably necessary".
Think that covers it - OTB 🛏
