Public Health

Proceeding contribution from Helen Whately (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 6 January 2021. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Public Health.

I do not believe that my hon. Friend is as he describes himself, but what I do think is quite clear. We are saying that people should stay at home,

unless their reason for leaving home is on the very clear list of essential reasons for doing so. That covers the eligibility of the children of critical workers to be in school, healthcare appointments and, indeed, exercise. We really need to make sure that it is absolutely clear that, other than for those specific reasons, people should stay at home. That is what we need to do in order to control this raging virus. That is the message that all of us need to convey to our constituents.
