Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport
Implementation of the EU Digital Covid Certificate: Discussion
Mr. Barry Lowry:
The tracker app, as a technical product, is ready but we need to go through a due diligence process. That started yesterday with a presentation to the governance committee over the tracker app. The Department of Health has been liaising with the Data Protection Commission throughout the week and if we get the green light, the app can be made available from next Monday. It is the major launch date for all this technology and the certificate itself.
