She says that the order is “necessary for the purpose of preventing, protecting against, controlling or providing a public health response” against the threat of coronavirus.
Ms Beasley says the closures “are a proportionate means of achieving that purpose”.
The chief executive says action has been taken on the basis that The Boat Race, which will start on the River Ouse in Ely and finish in Littleport, has been designated an Elite race.
