Retail Trade: Coronavirus (6 November 2020)

Asked by:
Charlotte Nichols (Labour)

Answer

In England, COVID-secure businesses can continue to sell goods – such as a hairdressing salon selling shampoo or beauty products – online or via click-and-collect. If a business is able to trade goods in a COVID-secure manner while following the new national restrictions and all of the other trade requirements behind selling another good, they can.
