Removing the legal requirements doesn't mean that businesses and employers don't need to consider the risks associated with coronavirus. However, it is time for them to assess these risks alongside other transmittable diseases, including flu and norovirus. We have amended public health advice to businesses, employers and event organisers to help them to continue to implement effective control measures for public health, safeguarding their businesses, their staff and visitors.

Advice to the public remains that face coverings should be used in all busy indoor locations. Our guidance advises a number of other control measures that people and organisations can put in place to reduce transmission of coronavirus and to safeguard Wales. Some of these measures include vaccination, having good hand hygiene, testing and self-isolating when you have symptoms, wearing a face covering in busy indoor locations or enclosed spaces, meeting others in outdoor spaces, and, when you are indoors, to ventilate properly. And these rules will be further reviewed by 5 May.

As we always do, we will continue to make decisions to safeguard the health of the people of Wales based on the scientific evidence and the public health advice available to us. I encourage Members to support this motion.
