Commons ChamberThat is why we have set up the various taskforces that we have, to ensure that we work with everybody in the sectors to enable them to open as fast as possible in a covid-compliant way; that is our ambition.

Now is the time, folks, to have a staycation in the UK—Hunstanton or elsewhere.
