Note this decree has passed over a considerable amount of power to police. You must have ID on you at all time or they will detain you!!!

Rules in relation to carrying some form of ID have always been the case. From what I have read the police will be possibly checking people out and about more for the purpose of them being out other than for essential reasons than ID. I would think the last thing the police need is police stations and cells full of possible virus carriers!
