Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment he has made of the effect on trends in the level of covid-19 transmission rates of reducing the length of the period of self-isolation from 14 days to 10 days.
While we have not made a specific assessment, the evidence shows a low likelihood of being infectious as a contact after 10 days. We will keep this under constant review.
