Daily Mail published this video item, entitled “International travel rules eased from October 4th” – below is their description.
Ministers today announced they are replacing the current international travel traffic light scheme with a simplified ‘go and no-go’ system as they also scrapped pre-departure tests for fully-vaccinated travellers returning to England. Transport Secretary Grant Shapps said that from October 4 the current approach of green, amber and red will be ditched in favour of a single red list of banned countries and a ‘rest of the world’ category for everywhere else. Meanwhile, people who are double-jabbed will no longer need to take a pre-departure test before arriving back in the country from a non-red list nation. Then from later in October the day two PCR test requirement for returning travellers will be replaced with a cheaper lateral flow test. The Government has also slashed the number of countries on the red list, with eight nations being removed from 4am on September 22, including Turkey, Pakistan and the Maldives.
