Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he is taking to ensure UK citizens who have received their Covid-19 vaccinations in New Zealand are able to receive an NHS Covid Pass.

The pilot scheme will be deployed nationally in December, supported by online bookings and further vaccination sites. We are working to understand which non-Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency-approved equivalent vaccines we would be confident to recognise in the NHS COVID Pass. Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Moderna and Janssen vaccines administered in New Zealand recorded with the national service will be able to generate a NHS COVID Pass shortly.
