RETURNING NATIONALS WILL SOON PAY FOR MANDATORY QUARANTINE AT JOLLY BEACH

Report filed by Jamie J. Roacher – News Reporter

Returning nationals will soon have to pay for mandatory quarantine at a government facility.
Prime Minister the Hon. Gaston Browne says the new policy ending self-quarantining will likely take effect Tuesday.

The government announced a similar policy last year but withdrew it after public pushback.
The Prime Minister says the government will not relent this time.
He says the rule is crucial since contact tracers have linked many recent coronavirus cases to returning nationals’ violations in December and January.
