Relaxed rules agreed between Westminster government and devolved administrations
As many as three different households will be allowed to mix for five days over the Christmas period, government sources have said, under a UK-wide plan agreed on Friday between ministers and the devolved nations.
Details of the much-touted Christmas relaxation were thrashed out at a Cobra meeting involving the Westminster government and the devolved administrations, and chaired by the Cabinet Office minister, Michael Gove.
