Key questions
Which areas in the º£½ÇÊÓƵ are affected by these new restrictions?
- all of Northern Ireland

- Ìý
It is also a requirement that people living in parts of Wales outside of the local restrictions areas must not enter any of the areas listed above unless they have a reasonable excuse to do so.
What reasonable measures should tourism or hospitality businesses take to ensure compliance with the new travel restrictions?
Welsh Government said: "As a business you should take all reasonable measures to ensure that you and your customers are complying with the new travel restrictions rules.
"You should not knowingly accept customers who have travelled to your premises from an area where travel is not permitted.
"You should ask the customer at the point of booking where they are travelling from and communicate to all customers with existing bookings from 6pm on Friday 16 October, reminding them to check whether they reside within a º£½ÇÊÓƵ high incidence area and giving them a chance to cancel or postpone their bookings if required."
If the new regulation means businesses have to cancel bookings from visitors outside the area, what is the position with regards to refunds?
Ultimately, any decisions on refunds are a matter between the business and the customer, which will be determined by the terms and conditions of the booking.
Can people from high incidence areas still travel through Wales?
Yes. If they have to travel along a road that passes through Wales (e.g. to travel from England to Ireland) and have no other reasonable option to travel to their destination, then this is allowed.
This also applies to visitors travelling by public transport e.g. changing trains at stations in Wales.
Can people from high incidence areas still travel to a second home or caravan they own in Wales?
Being on holiday is not deemed a reasonable excuse and people should return to their main residence as soon as practicable.ÌýÌý
Holiday and Caravan parks are not legally responsible for enforcing these requirements on their customers but must not help customers to break any restrictions.
The obligation is on the individual although a business that encourages a breach may also commit an offence. As such if a caravan owner on your site is from a high incidence area, you may consider it appropriate to encourage them to leave if they are able to do so.
Can caravan owners from high incidence areas return to a park to collect their belongings and secure their caravans for winter?
Yes, althoughÌýcaravan park owners should agree a time and date for caravan owners from a high incidence area to visit the site.
Whilst on site they must continue to observe the social distancing measures. Owners are not permitted to stay overnight in their caravans while these travel restrictions are in operation.
