But the exception was only announced two weeks after Dominic Cummings had set off on his trip.
Quote:
Sources close to Mr Cummings earlier cited comments made by deputy chief medical officer Dr Jenny Harries, who suggested in "exceptional circumstances" parents too ill to look after a child could rely on family support, among other options.
But Dr Harries made her remarks almost two weeks after Mr Cummings travelled north.

And it's entirely plausible that the exceptions were only devised to try and accommodate Dominic Cummings' situtaion.
