Ensure people reside in their primary residence during the coronavirus pandemic.
Bring in legislation to ensure people reside in their primary residence during the pandemic. Stop rural hospitals getting overrun with Covid-19 cases due to people deciding to self isolate in second homes and holiday accommodation.
Bring in financial penalties for those who defy the legislation.
Rural health care is already under huge pressure, allowing an influx at this time may well cost lives.
At the very least ensure that the habitation of furnished lodgings that are not primary residences is restricted to the owner, and in their presence, their children and parents.
