Scrapping of restrictions marks end to Covid data collection
There is no legal requirement for businesses to contact trace those who visit their premises.
New guidance published by the government says record-keeping should now be reviewed as coronavirus measures are lifted.
But a number of businesses have been in touch with the Information Commissioner to understand what affect the changes will have on data collection.
Those in sectors such as hospitality and fitness were advised to hold 'robust contact tracing registers' to track any potential outbreak of Covid-19.
Ian McDonald is the Information Commissioner, who supervises organisations on data protection compliance.
He says as of Thursday, when the Island's pubs and restaurants can open restriction-free, tracing registers will no longer be necessary.
