Implementation of the EU Digital Covid Certificate: Discussion
Ms Elizabeth Canavan:
To be clear, we need to distinguish between what the digital Covid certificate will allow for and what it can involve, which are separate from the public health policy of any individual country. The digital Covid certificate will, in line with the EU, allow for PCR testing and antigen testing because the requirement for some countries is antigen testing. However, the current Government policy with regard to entry to this country is for PCR testing.
