The Health Protection (Coronavirus, Restrictions) (England) (No. 3) Regulations 2020 (SI 2020/750) is a statutory instrument (SI) enacted on 18 July 2020 by the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, Matt Hancock, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. It allowed a local authority to make directions relating to premises, events and outdoor public spaces in its area, supplementing central government powers relating to public outdoor places that were granted to the Secretary of State on 3 July in The Health Protection (Coronavirus, Restrictions) (No. 2) (England) Regulations 2020 (SI 2020/684).[1] In practice, the regulations allowed local authorities to close shops and outdoor public spaces, and to cancel events.[2] The regulations related to England only.
The regulations were revoked on 24 February 2022.[3]
