Reuniting separated couples
Some couples have - for various reasons - been separated for the duration of the lockdown, causing significant emotional distress and making a difficult situation even harder. Options should be considered to allow couples to reunite as quickly as possible. Particular attention should be paid to instances where one or both parties is part of a closed household with no other contacts. Ie. They live alone and are not working on the front line.
The rules as they stand are broad brush - for very good reason - but perhaps they need to be reviewed to consider more specific circumstances to allow some people to move more freely where the additional risk to health is minimal or non existent. Perhaps applications could be made to a panel for approval to visit certain people or receive special dispensation to act differently.
Why the contribution is important
There is a mental health consideration here, which the government states they are all too aware of. Some people have been living apart from loved ones - sometimes even alone - for a very considerable period now. Changes must be made as quickly as possible wherever possible, and this may require closer examination of personal circumstances.
