Hotel quarantine regime needs sunset clause
Henry Smith MP, Chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for the Future of Aviation has today backed calls for a sunset clause and exit strategy from the current hotel quarantine policy for arrivals from high risk countries.
Commenting, Henry Smith MP said: “I strongly support sunset clauses in regulations and restrictions particularly as the vaccine roll out is happening at pace and seems to be happening successfully.
“As the vaccine roll-out protects more and more people, it is important that hotel quarantine is seen as a temporary and targeted measure. Anything else does real damage to our aviation and hospitality industry and wider economy in the long term.”
