Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if he will list the criteria used to identify organisations suitable for participation in the daily contact testing pilot.

Organisations participating in the workplace daily contact testing pilot were selected having expressed an interest in joining the pilot and whether an asymptomatic testing site was available in the workplace. The workplaces selected were also designed to ensure a spread of different types of organisation, including additional public sector organisations, to assess the operational implications of running daily contact testing.
