Petition Action

Use NHS testing centres for Travel Testing purposes instead of private ones.

Petition Details

Government should utilise our taxes better by allowing unused NHS testing centres capabilities to be used for travel purposes even if the Test for Travels would be extra paid.

Additional Information

The government is paying from our taxes for maintaining NHS Testing Centres which are not fully used but at the same time is forcing taxpayers to travel long distances to get commercial Test for Travel tests instead of utilising those already tax paid resources to earn some money and save unnecessary travel. Community Testing centres tests are not accepted during border control but their costs are covered from our taxes.
