NORTH Essex has escaped being plunged into Tier 3 of coronavirus restrictions after the Government’s latest review but council bosses have warned residents need to stick to the rules as the infection rate in Essex rises. Health Secretary Matt Hancock addressed Parliament yesterday, announcing the latest Tier rules for towns and cities across England. Both Colchester and Tendring will remain under Tier 2 rules, despite most of Essex moving to Tier 3, the strictest level of restrictions. Mr Hancock has kept the areas in Tier 2, where they will remain until the next review on or about Wednesday. The rest of Essex, except Uttlesford, will remain under Tier 3 rules.
