A full call centre will go live on July 19th, the committee was told, when the Digital Covid Certificate system goes live. People can apply for a DCC if they are vaccinated, have a confirmed Covid infection within six months, or have a recent test result. Once that is available, it can be stored in someone’s “wallet” in their phone - however, until then, it can be presented as an email on someone’s phone or device, or a physical copy.
Ms Canavan told the committee the State is working “full on” to try and get 1.9 million certificates out by the 19th July.
