(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Health Protection (Coronavirus) (International Travel) (Scotland) Regulations 2020 ("the International Travel Regulations").
Paragraphs (2) and (7) of regulation 2 substitute for schedule 3 of the International Travel Regulations a new schedule 3A, which updates the list of specified competitions for the purposes of paragraph 38 of schedule 2, which exempts certain sportspersons from the requirement to comply with regulation 6.
Paragraph (4) of regulation 2 removes French Polynesia and Portugal from the list of exempt countries and territories in Part 1 of schedule A1 of the International Travel Regulations. This means that persons arriving in Scotland on or after the time these Regulations come into force are no longer exempt from the movement restriction in regulation 6 of the International Travel Regulations if, during the 14 days preceding their arrival, they have departed from or transited through French Polynesia or Portugal.
Paragraph (5) of regulation 2 amends the information which a passenger is required to provide in accordance with regulation 3 of the International Travel Regulations to include, for a person who is not subject to the requirement to self-isolate in regulation 6, details of the address at which they intend to stay for the period of 14 days beginning on the day after the date of their arrival in Scotland. Paragraph (3) makes a consequential amendment to regulation 6(3)(a)(i) of the International Travel Regulations.
Paragraph (6) of regulation 2 amends the description in paragraph 4D of schedule 2 of the International Travel Regulations of a person not required to comply with regulations 6 or 3 of those Regulations, to include inspectors or surveyors of ships appointed by a government of a relevant British possession as defined in section 313(1) of the Merchant Shipping Act 1995.
