No ‘immediate plans’ for Covid-19 vaccine passports, says housing minister

The government is carrying out a review into 'Covid-status' certificates

The UK government has no “immediate plans” for a Covid-19 vaccine passport for pubs and other venues which can reopen in May, the housing minister said.

“We will be bringing forward the outcome of that work [the review] in the coming weeks; we don’t have an immediate plan to take action,” Robert Jenrick told Times Radio on 26 March, according to Reuters.
