Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if he will list the categories of people exempt from the requirement to self-isolate for 14 days when returning to the UK from a country not on the travel corridor list; what plans he has to amend that list; and if he will make a statement.

Exemptions to the self-isolation requirement are in place primarily to meet the UK’s international obligations, provide for continued security of supply into the UK and so as not to impede work supporting national security or critical infrastructure.

The full list of exemptions is available on gov.uk at the link below: full list here: www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-covid-19-travellers-exempt-from-uk-border-rules/coronavirus-covid-19-travellers-exempt-from-uk-border-rules

The list of exemptions is kept under regular review.
