Lord Bethell (Con)
The evidence base and criteria were our discussions with local authorities and community leaders on what an effective amount would be that would tip the balance in a personal decision to isolate. As I said earlier, those personal decisions are extremely tough. It was agreed with local infection teams and authorities that this was the kind of sum that would make a difference.
The Lord Speaker (Lord Fowler)
My Lords, the time allowed for this Question has elapsed, and that concludes Question Time.
