Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what steps his Department is taking to ensure the provision of accurate guidance on the risk of covid-19 in relation to overseas travel.

Since 17 March, the Foreign and Commonwealth Office has advised against all but essential travel globally. For British Nationals who remain overseas we advise them to be prepared to follow the advice of local authorities abroad and to be ready to comply with local isolation or quarantine requirements. We keep our travel advice under review.
