Mr. Niall Burgess:

There are always some citizens who are in urgent circumstances and with whom we are working particularly actively. It is very difficult to get a precise fix on the numbers of people who want to come home because people's assessment of their circumstances changes continuously. We had a very high caseload, for example, from New Zealand, but as the health situation there improved several citizens decided that they would be better and probably safer staying in New Zealand than taking the risk of long-haul travel.

At the moment, we have clusters of citizens in Latin America, especially in Argentina and Brazil. We have numbers wanting to get out of Brazil because of the evolution of the disease there, and it is particularly difficult because of the reduction in international traffic. We have clusters in Nigeria and in South Africa. We also have clusters in Asia, including Bangladesh.
