Question to the Home Office:
To ask Her Majesty's Government whether passport scans at UK airports will reveal the vaccinated status of UK citizens; and if so, (1) how this information has been obtained, and (2) how the permission of UK citizens has been obtained to allow this information to be shared.
Answered by Lord Greenhalgh
The UK Government has signalled an intention to reduce health measure requirements for inbound passengers who have received two doses of an approved COVID-19 vaccine.
How evidence of this status is declared and shared by the individual is still being assessed.
