Toilets and compliance with the Health Protection Regulations – NEXSTART Advice Note Published Date: 17/06/2020

Toilets and compliance with the Health Protection Regulations – NEXSTART Advice Note

NEXSTART has issued its latest advice note dealing with toilet provision and the Health Protection (Coronavirus Restrictions) Regulations 2020 in England & Wales.

The question addressed in the advice note is: are premises permitted to allow their customers to use their toilets?  The advice note concludes that nothing in the restriction regulations precludes this.  It goes into detailed discussion and reasoning to support the conclusion.

NEXTSTART is a cross sector group looking to reduce risk for licensed premises operating during the current pandemic and so ensure the safety of the public, premises staff and officers and provide clarity for all involved.

David Lucas represents the Institute on the NEXTSTART group.
