'Our store colleagues are not really to get involved and it's a police matter to enforce'

Best of Today - Ein Podcast von BBC Radio 4

JD Sports executive chairman Peter Cowgill told Mishal Husain his stores will offer face coverings to anyone not wearing them, but said it will not be for his staff to enforce the law: "The guidance so far is that our store colleagues are not really to get involved and it's a police matter to enforce rather than for them to get involved in any potential public disturbances". He was responding to the decision to make face masks mandatory in shops in England from 24th July.
