Canary Islands and Majorca could be placed on the UK Green List
Popular islands for holidaymakers, including the Canary Islands and Majorca, could be placed on the Green List, the government has said.
This could happen as early as 7 June, said Transport Secretary Grant Shapps.
The Transport Secretary told the transport select committee that he has "asked The Joint Biosecurity Centre to consider islands within their criteria and where possible they would look to include if them if facts stacked up".
This could mean that even if mainland Spain remains on the amber list, the islands that are part of the same country, could be graded differently by the traffic light system.
Those returning from Green List countries currently do not need to quarantine on return.
