The Government continues to consider a range of options to manage the risk of imported cases, including the role COVID-19 virus testing could play as part of measures at the border.<\/p>
To keep number of transmissions in the United Kingdom as low as possible, and to protect UK residents and international students in the UK, subject to some exemptions international arrivals are required to supply their contact and accommodation information, and self-isolate in their accommodation for 14 days where they have departed from or transited through a non-exempt country in the 14 days before the date of their arrival. It remains the case that we have the capacity to provide free tests to anyone in the UK who is showing symptoms.<\/p>

Approximately 13% of offenders released between March and April this year were released homeless; which is comparable to data for 2018/19.<\/p>
Everyone leaving prison should have somewhere safe and secure to live because accommodation reduces the likelihood of them reoffending.<\/p>
That is why our accommodation pilots, in Leeds, Pentonville and Bristol, have been operating since August 2019 and we have secured up to £8.5 million to support individuals at risk of homelessness released from prison during Covid-19. This will help them to move into permanent accommodation.<\/p>"}
