Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many fines have been issued for failing to self isolate when returning from overseas.

On 30 September, the National Police Chiefs’ Council published its monthly data related to police use of Covid-19 enforcement notices issued under all emergency health protections. The data covers up to 21 September and shows that 38 fines had been issued to individuals who have contravened the International Travel regulations by failing to self-isolate after arriving in England from a country on the UK government list. These were issued across 14 forces.
