Zahawi Confirms Vaccine Passports (Sky News, 5 Sept 2021)

Transcript:
"So, we are looking at, by the end of September when everyone has had the opportunity to be fully vaccinated, for the large venues, venues that could end up causing a real spike in infections, where we need to use the certification process. And if you look at what the FA have done so brilliantly in terms of checking vaccine status to reopen football, that is the sort of right thing to do and we are absolutely on track to continue to make sure that we do that.

"And there's a reason for that, Trevor, the reason being that, I, as does the prime minister, want to make sure that the whole economy remains open. The worst thing we can do for those venues is to have a sort of open-shut-open-shut strategy, because we see infection rates rise because of the close interaction of people. That's how the virus spreads, if people are in close spaces in large numbers, we see spikes appearing. The best thing to do then is to work with the industry to make sure that they can open safely and sustainably in the long term. And the best way to do that is to check vaccine status."
