On Friday, doctors at Salisbury District Hospital said Mr Skripal, 66, was “responding well to treatment, improving rapidly and no longer in a critical condition”.
But the Foreign Office has said the pair are likely go have “ongoing medical needs”.
Moscow has denied being responsible for the poisoning of the Skripals but the incident has plunged diplomatic relations between Russia and the West into the deep freeze.
Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson used a Sunday Times article to accuse Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn of lending “false credibility” to Moscow by not blaming the Russian state unequivocally over the incident.
Mr Johnson said the Kremlin had released a “torrent of absurdity” following the attack.
