Covid-19: 'We can't afford to take the risk' - businesses react to new legislation

The Covid-19 certification scheme has now come into effect in Northern Ireland.

The scheme requires people to show proof of vaccination, a negative test, or proof of recovery from a positive PCR test to enter some venues and events.

Businesses have said there is a lack of clarity around the scheme and how they should enforce it.

In a statement last week, the Department of Health said there will be no enforcement until 13 December to allow the scheme to "bed in".
