Quarantine if you arrive from Spain from midnight 25/7/2020
Any other options? If I read the legislation, starting strangely at the top ,and work down I still come to the same conclusion, that the quarantine period would only end earlier than if the person left the UK as a falling under the category sub para b or c section 4.3. a and were "removed" from the UK
Para 4(1) defines who must self-isolate
Para 4(3) simply defines, for those who must self-isolate, where that self-isolation must take place, dependent on category (e.g. arrivals from outside the CTA/asylum seekers/immigration bail grantees/etc). Agreed ?
Para 4(7) defines, for those who must self-isolate, how long that self-isolation must last: either 14 days or when the person leaves England (whichever is sooner)
With respect, I really don't understand how or why you are inventing other interdependencies that aren't provided for in the Regulations.

In the medical world, quarantine is a preventative measure segregating potentially contagious individuals from a healthy population, while isolation is the segregation of a confirmed infected person from everyone else. So, if we follow this logic, the UK arrival measure is a quarantine. But probably they don't call it this because "self-isolation" sounds more self-explanatory and easy to understand.
