France no longer exempt from UK's 14-day quarantine period
People travelling to the UK from France will no longer be exempt from the governments 14-day quarantine period, unless their journey was for business, the media reported
London : People travelling to the UK from France will no longer be exempt from the governments 14-day quarantine period, unless their journey was for business, the media reported.
On Sunday, Prime Minister Boris Johnson had announced that anyone flying into the UK will have to spend 14 days in isolation before being able to move freely around the country, the Metro newspaper reported.
These rules were not set to apply to France, but ministers have now reportedly scrapped their blanket exemption.
It comes after concerns that the previous exemption could be exploited, with travellers from other countries flying to the UK through France.
The new proposal is expected to be unveiled next week by officials after the details have been finalised, according to the newspaper report.
A Whitehall source told the Daily Telegraph: "The French don't want a blanket exemption, only freight and business travel.
