Speaking to the Transport Select Committee on Wednesday (19 October), Trevelyan said she will prioritise rebuilding relations with India after the country announced plans to scrap e-visas for British tourists earlier this month.

"Just last week I met with the country’s high commissioner in the UK and we discussed a range of issues, and this was one of them. I will bring the matter to cabinet members later today," she said.
