Andrew RT Davies MS – the Shadow Health Minister – has given his reaction to the announcement today (September 21) that local lockdowns will be imposed on Bridgend, Merthyr Tydfil, Blaenau Gwent, and Newport local authorities.
Welsh Conservative Mr Davies said:

“We all need to play our part by adhering to social distancing, masks, and hand hygiene, and we need to see a strong public information campaign from the Welsh Labour-led Government to hammer this message home.”
