CARDIFF – The Welsh Government said it is seeking urgent talks with the UK government to discuss COVID travel bans imposed by several countries.
The Republic of Ireland, which has ferry routes from Holyhead and Pembrokeshire, is among those to have banned UK visitors for two days.
Freight travel is being allowed by Irish Ferries and Stena Line on routes in and out of Wales, but passenger travel is not being permitted by the Irish government on Monday and Tuesday.
“Arrangements are being put in place to facilitate the repatriation of Irish residents on short trips to Great Britain and planning to return in the coming days, as well as international travellers to Ireland who are transiting through Great Britain,” The Irish government said. (BBC)
