Travellers arriving from red list countries will be able to apply for waivers or discounts, papers reveal
Travellers entering the UK from red list countries who suffer financial hardship will be able to apply for waivers or discounts on the cost of mandatory hotel quarantine, lawyers fighting the policy have revealed.
In correspondence seen by the Guardian, UK government lawyers said the Department of Health and Social Care was “currently in the process of refining their scheme to allow persons entering the managed quarantine system to apply for a fee waiver or reduction on the grounds of financial hardship”.
