Thank you, Dirprwy Llywydd, and I make this report again in respect of items 6, 7, 8 and 9. The coronavirus restrictions No. 5 regulations, as the Minister has reported, impose a number of restrictions and requirements in response to the risk to the public health arising from coronavirus, restrictions that will now be familiar to Members. Since being made, the No. 5 regulations have already been amended and the relevant amending regulations also feature in today's debate. Members will know that, originally, the No. 5 regulations were due to come into effect, as has been said, on 21 December, but, by virtue of the amending regulations, they, in fact, came into force on 20 December 2020, for the reasons that the Member has outlined. And Members will also know that they will expire at the end of the day on 31 March.

Now, as the Minister has said, the No. 5 regulations apply four alert levels, and differing restrictions apply within each alert level. Our reports on the No. 5 regulations and the two sets of amending regulations raise familiar merit points, namely the Welsh Government's justification for any potential interference with human rights, which obviously the committee considers very carefully; the issue of there being no formal consultation, but, again, for reasons that have been previously outlined; and that a regulatory impact assessment has not been carried out—again, for similar reasons. We also noted that the scientific evidence has been drawn on to assess public health risks in the making of the regulations. Furthermore, we have also highlighted the fact that both sets of amending regulations came into force before being laid before the Senedd. Now, on the first set of regulations amending the No. 5 regulations, we identified a drafting error. As the Welsh Government has noted in its response, received yesterday, the relevant provisions of the No. 5 regulations are now spent, having been revoked by the Health Protection (Coronavirus, International Travel and Restrictions) (Amendment) (Wales) Regulations 2021, which were made on 8 January 2021.

If I turn now to the Health Protection (Coronavirus, South Africa) (Wales) Regulations 2020, which amend both the international travel regulations under the No. 5 regulations, they make changes necessitated by the emerging health risks reported from South Africa that the Minister has reported on with regard to the new strain of coronavirus and, again, as he's reported, the high levels of transmissibility. We identified four technical reporting points relating to drafting errors and inconsistencies between the English and Welsh texts. The Welsh Government has noted these and will make corrections as necessary. Four merits points on these regulations again highlight the common and familiar issues that we consider: the interference with human rights, the absence of formal consultation, and the lack of a regulatory impact assessment, for, again, the reasons that have been identified, which we are familiar with. And again, in addition, these regulations came into force before they were laid. Diolch, Dirprwy Lywydd.
