Six more people have died from coronavirus in Northern Ireland in the last 24 hours, the Public Health Agency said on Sunday.
It reported a further 86 cases of the virus, also known as Covid-19, bringing the total in the region to 410. Twenty-one people have died from the virus in the North in total.
In a statement, the Executive said it had agreed to adopt the powers in “response to the serious and imminent threat to public health posed by Covid-19”.
The regulations, which came into effect at 11pm on Saturday night, compel the closure of certain premises and prohibit anyone from leaving home “without a reasonable excuse”, such as shopping for food, going to work or donating blood.
