Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what lessons they have learnt from the experience of the authorities in South Korea in tackling COVID-19; and how that is informing their actions in the next phase of the lockdown.
The Department is regularly in discussions with other countries on a wide range of issues of issues relating to COVID-19, including lockdown measures.
COVID-19 presents a global challenge which requires a collaborative response. The Department will continue to work with other countries throughout the crisis and beyond.
