Question

To ask the Scottish Government, further to the answer to question S6W-00307 by Ivan McKee on 7 June, whether it will provide an update on whether dancing is permitted at weddings in level 0 protection areas.


Answer

Dancing is not permitted at weddings in level 0 of the levels framework.

When we move beyond level 0, and out of the levels framework, almost all COVID restrictions will be removed for businesses and individuals. This will mean that dancing and singing at weddings will be able to resume at this time. In addition, businesses can reopen and can operate without restrictions on physical distancing or caps.

Some baseline measures will remain, including good hand hygiene and surface cleaning and continued compliance with Test and Protect. More guidance on these baseline measure will be provided prior to moving beyond level 0.
