Following the statement by the First Minister that by law all employers must keep employees apart by two meters, will the Minister clarify the position on employees sharing vehicles, some of whom are currently doing so to perform essential services?

I refer you to the accompanying guidance: Taking all reasonable measures to maintain physical distancing in the workplace: https://gov.wales/taking-all-reasonable-measures-maintain-physical-distancing-workplace
The guidance is intended to assist people in understanding what “taking all reasonable measures” means and what to do if it is not possible to maintain a distance of 2 metres in certain circumstances.
