To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, with reference to the removal of all countries from the covid-19 red list announced on 14 December 2021, if he will make it his policy to release people who are in hotel quarantine having returned to the UK from one of those countries.

Arrangements were made for guests in managed quarantine to leave at the earliest opportunity in line with appropriate COVID-19 safe protocols from 15 December.

Guests who tested positive, those who are unvaccinated, and those who were notified they had been a contact of someone who had tested positive were required to remain in quarantine. This aligns with domestic self isolation requirements.
