Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Scrutiny of EU Legislative Proposals

Mr. Barry Lowry:

Yes. There are two parts to this. The first is to be able to have the Northern Ireland digital Covid certificate and the second is we can basically run a minimum data set to the Department of Foreign Affairs and it can confirm that person is an Irish passport holder. We were putting significant emphasis on the security of that part, for obvious reasons. As of last night, I understand everything is well progressed and barring some unforeseen problem or disaster, the portal will be up this week.
