LONDON, Aug 7 (Reuters) - Britain will not hesitate to add
more countries to its quarantine list, finance minister Rishi
Sunak said on Friday when asked about whether France could join
Spain on the list.

"If we need to take action as you've seen overnight we will
of course not hesitate to do that," Sunak told Sky News.

Britain said on Thursday night that travellers returning to
the UK from Belgium, Andorra and the Bahamas would need to
quarantine for 14 days.

Sunak said that during a global pandemic, there was a risk
that people would have their travel plans disrupted.
