Evening Standard On informal business meetings, or business lunches, the [No. 10] spokesperson said that work meetings that need to take place face-to-face are exempt from gathering restrictions. She again highlighted the fact that some people, such as the self-employed and freelancers, may not have a workplace to conduct such business meetings, and so could do so in a hospitality setting.

What were the rules during Beergate and when was it?

Outdoor socialising was permitted, but only in groups of up to six people from two separate households. Pubs and restaurants were allowed to open, providing outdoor service only.
