Speaking to BBC Breakfast following prime minister Boris Johnson’s Easter Monday address (5 April) on the progress of the Global Travel Taskforce, Lundgren said it was vital government was transparent when it came to any such decisions.


"I think the government is looking to learn from what happened last year to make sure there can be an early signal if the destination is, for instance, in green and heading towards amber that it won’t come overnight [and] that there will be data available to allow customers to adapt," said Lundgren.
