Question
to the Leader of the House:
To ask the Leader of the House, whether hon. Members contacted by covid-19 track and trace contact centres while in London should return home to their constituency or remain in London.
Answered by Jacob Rees-Mogg
I recognise that Members’ health is a personal matter. If a Member is contacted by covid-19 track and trace contact centres they must follow advice in line with public health. This may mean that they need to self isolate and avoid using public transport to reduce risk to others. I trust all members, as dedicated public servants, to follow this advice diligently.
