Sector warns measures will hit revenue as retail industry expresses relief over reopening

The retail industry expressed relief that all shops will reopen on 2 December during the crucial Christmas trading weeks, alongside gyms and personal care services such as hairdressers and barbers. However, the hospitality industry bore the brunt of toughened rules.
