Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, with reference to the coronavirus, what steps the Government is taking to relax visa travel return requirements for visitors already in the UK and who are due to return to China; and if she will make a statement.

We will take a proportionate approach to individuals who are unable to comply with their visa due to circumstances beyond their control, and are actively engaging with the relevant sectors to develop an effective strategy to ensure individuals are not penalised. Information and guidance will be placed into the public domain as soon as it is available.
