Northern Ireland High Street Voucher Scheme 2021: How to apply now the the portal is opened and where you can spend it

Good afternoon
Welcome to your afternoon update and Coronavirus bulletin from the News Letter
Sadly four further deaths of patients who had tested positive for Covid-19 have been reported in Northern Ireland. The Department of Health said there had also been 903 new confirmed cases in the last 24-hour reporting period. On Monday morning there were 345 Covid-19 patients in hospital, with 28 in intensive care.

A DUP Assembly member has branded Stormont’s Covid-19 restrictions as draconian and undemocratic. Paul Frew’s remarks came as he pressed deputy First Minister Michelle O’Neill on how long emergency powers taken by the Executive would remain in place. Ms O’Neill rejected his characterisation as she made clear the powers would remain in place “for as long as necessary” to protect public health.
