Local MP Huw Merriman has asked the Prime Minister to do more to unlock international travel.

In today's statement on the forthcoming Coronavirus Inquiry, Huw asked the Prime Minister to consider widening the countries on the green list as the UK's vaccination programme continues to roll out and to ensure airports have the capacity to deal with increased passengers through digitisation and more border staff. Huw also asked the PM to encourage President Biden to restart international travel between the UK and USA.
