Northern Ireland's Deputy First Minister Michelle O’Neill has said the adoption of vaccine passports in Northern Ireland is "very much on the table." 

Despite human rights concerns around the use of vaccine certification, Ms O'Neill said they may be required for the “greater good” and she is "very open" to their adoption should the evidence show they are useful in suppressing Covid-19.
