July 27, 2020 [View email online]( [News]( [Sport]( [Arts and Culture]( [Facebook]( [Twitter]( [The Scotsman] Jul 27, 2020 Good afternoon, There are "lessons to learn" after the decision to remove Spain from the list of countries exempt from quarantine, Humza Yousaf has said. The Justice Secretary said the change was made after ["deeply alarming" data emerged showing cases almost doubling in Spain](. He said it is "inevitable" that countries that are currently on the exempt list for quarantine will be removed as spikes in coronavirus cases emerge. The decision to remove Spain from the list was made on a "four nations" basis on Saturday, with the UK Government and all devolved administrations ordering returning travellers to self-isolate for 14 days.
