Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Vere of Norbiton on 8 February (HL12760), what plans they have to change the format of NHS Test and Trace to allow it to “provide a result notification in a format that would be acceptable to meet the new pre-departure testing requirements”.

There are no plans to do so. NHS Test and Trace testing is for those with symptoms of COVID-19 or who are clinically advised to take a test and are not to be used for international travel.
