LONDON, Nov 9 (Reuters) - Britain is making "good progress"
with a plan to allow COVID-19 tests to cut a 14-day quarantine
period for those returning from abroad, a change which could
help fuel a travel recovery once current lockdowns end, the
transport minister said.
"We're making very good progress on a test to release
programme to launch once we're out of this lockdown," UK
transport minister Grant Shapps told an online airport industry
conference on Monday.

England's current four-week lockdown is set to finish on
Dec. 2.
