He told Sky News:"We do not believe the government announcement means carte blanche - total freedom - for anyone travelling from outside the county for a day visit."We do not believe that this is staying alert - to undertake a long, unnecessary journey."He said he would be seeking clarity and further guidance from the government on what the changes to the lockdown actually mean.
"We are totally committed to play our part in protecting local residents and communities in Cornwall - alongside protecting the future of the industry.
