Coronavirus: Shapps on changes to island travel restrictions

Travellers returning from seven Greek islands to England will have to self-isolate for a fortnight, Grant Shapps has said.

The transport secretary announced a policy which allowed specific islands to added or removed from the travel corridor list, separate to the rest of their nation.

He said: “We have the data and the capacity to add and remove islands from quarantine while still providing maximum protection to the UK public.”
