answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/05/2020 answer text <p>On 23 March, SAGE advised that the effect of closing borders would have a negligible effect on spread of COVID-19, based on the fact that numbers of cases arriving from other countries were estimated to be insignificant in comparison with domestic cases, comprising approximately 0.5% of total domestic cases. The Home Office and SAGE have been keeping these figures under review. The numbers of passengers arriving in the UK are extremely small, and as such, there is uncertainty in any estimate at such a low level; however, we are confident that the percentage remains under 0.5% of total domestic cases.</p> answering member constituency Croydon South answering member printed Chris Philp question first answered 18/05/2020 16:52:55 answering member 4503 label Biography information for Chris Philp
