Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what discussions he has had with his Irish counterpart on that country's covid-19 track and trace app; and if he will make a statement.

Asked by:
Ed Davey (Liberal Democrat)

Answer

We are working closely with the Republic of Ireland and our other international partners to build understanding and share learning across borders. There are many countries like the United Kingdom that are working on how best to deploy their apps while taking into account cultural and societal differences, and we have been proactive in exchanging ideas on how best to do this.
