Lord Kamall (Con)
I am not aware of any announcements or measures that accord with the noble Lord’s question.
Lord Brownlow of Shurlock Row (Con)
My Lords, for some time I have been testing every day and use testing kits that I acquire online and pay for from the same manufacturers that the Government use to distribute free tests. Why are those tests not registerable through the Government website, so that you can get an email confirmation of a negative test? The QR codes are not recognised if you buy tests yourself.
Lord Kamall (Con)
I must say to my noble friend that I was not aware of that, and therefore I will have to go back to the department. If he could write to me about that, I will be happy to respond.
