This weekend police in Wales were busy clamping down on people who were breaching coronavirus lockdown rules. The Welsh Government introduced new regulations this weekend in an attempt to make it clear people can’t leave and remain away from the place they live.
The rules were tightened specifically to stop people travelling outside the local area they live, especially to second homes.
Due to the amazing weather over the weekend, the police had to issue Fixed Penalty Notices to those flouting the rules. Police said most people were following advice to stay home, but that a “small minority had selfishly put others at risk”, and they had been fined.
