P.s No such thing as a new regular unless it’s irregular
I would like to suggest that the government to consider a Port Health base at the Ports of Entry to screen passengers entering and leaving the territory. It should be mandatory for ALL PASSENGERS entering and leaving the territory to produce a valid Health Certificate from a government Heath Department and not from private doctors and that will allow for free movement of persons. This certificate should be obtained forty-eight hours before entering or leaving the territory. If my suggestion is accepted we will be able to have free movement of people in the territory.
