Measures in the UK:


When are people allowed to leave their homes?

Mr Johnson said everybody should stay at home and would only be allowed to leave for specific reasons:
  • Shopping for "basic necessities", as infrequently as possible. People should use delivery services, where they can
  • Medical reasons, to provide care, or to help a vulnerable person
  • Travelling to and from work, but only if it is "absolutely necessary"
People should not meet friends or family members who do not live with them.

What other new measures are there?

The prime minister said:
  • Shops selling "non-essential goods" including clothes and electronics stores will be closed immediately
  • Libraries, playgrounds, outdoor gyms and places of worship will also close
  • Gatherings of more than two people (excluding people who live together) will be banned
  • There will be no weddings or baptisms but funerals will be allowed
  • Parks will remain open but people are only to go out to exercise once a day
All of the new measures will last for three weeks from 23 March before being reviewed.

How will the measures be enforced?

The police will be given the powers to make sure people follow the measures - by dispersing groups and issuing fines.
The National Police Chiefs' Council told the BBC that officers would be talking to people and explaining why they shouldn't be out.
If they do not accept the advice, they would then be given a fine. However, fines won't be issued until Parliament passes the emergency legislation - which should be by the end of Thursday.
The Home Office has not said, at this stage, how big the fines are likely to be.
Councils will also play a role. Licensing, environmental health and trading standards teams will be used to make sure that local businesses follow the rules.
The Local Government Association says that "anyone who sees a business breaching government closure restrictions should report it to their local council so it can investigate and take appropriate action".

What about non-food shops?

Some other types of non-food retailers are also allowed to stay open, according to government guidance:
  • Pharmacies
  • Petrol stations
  • Garages
  • Bicycle shops, home and hardware shops
  • Car rentals
  • Pet shops
  • Corner shops and newsagents
  • Post offices
  • Banks
  • Laundrettes and dry cleaners
If a customer visits any of these premises, they need to ensure they stick to the social distancing rules.

Below please find a document which has been translated published by the Andratx town hall, which I thought would be of interest to you.

Translation thanks to Anne Kay.

The Andratx local police answer some of the questions re the State of Alarm

1.Can I take my dog for a walk? 

It is not to do with going for a walk with your pet but rather to do with taking the dog out to do its motions.  The whole family cannot go.

If you have two or more dogs, you must take them out together, or even two walks but you cannot go with somebody else. 

The dogs cannot go for walks on the beach, it is forbidden. .

For hygiene and cooperation, you must remember that animal excrement must be picked up and the area washed down with water, if possible with a little bleach.

2.I have a dog in a house in the country, can I go to feed it?

Yes, you can go to feed the dog or other animals, but you must always go alone. 

3.Can I move house? 

This is not an activity allowed for individuals, but it is for removal firms.  Once the removal is over, you can go to your new home but you cannot go back and forth from one home to the other.

4.Can I cycle or practice sports? 

Yes, you can move around by bicycle but only for one of the motives which leaving one's home is allowed.  You are not allowed to go for a ride or practise sports.

12.Can I go to the beach or children's playgrounds?

NO. No this is not an activity allowed for leaving your home.

13.Can I go shopping with my underage children or with elderly people?

If you do not have anyone to leave them with, they can accompany you.  But if there is an adult at home, for their well-being and for others, they should stay at home.  Be responsible.
