Apprenticeships and skills minister Gillian Keegan says the government will announce changes to simplify the traffic light travel restrictions this week.

Ms Keegan said it was necessary to tread a ‘careful balance’ when opening up travel, but added that rules needed to be “simple enough for people to understand and to take their own decisions” when heading abroad.

It follows criticism of a rumoured amber watchlist of countries which may move on to the red list and the so-called amber-plus list on which only France has been placed.
