Ministers have mooted plans to allow quarantine-free travel to amber-list countries for people in England who have been fully vaccinated.
The health secretary, Matt Hancock, confirmed earlier that ministers were considering how to scrap the requirement for people to isolate for ten-days on return from a country on the list.
He explained he was “in favour of moving forward in this area”.
Asked if these plans could be in place as soon as August, Hancock said: “We’ll get there when it’s safe to do so.”
