New online forms will be made available in coming weeks for people to apply for Digital Covid Certificates. The Department of Health made the announcement in response to continuing complaints from members of the public who cannot get through to the Helpline.
Many people complained of being left on hold for hours and of being cut off before their call is answered. The Department has previously admitted it can only deal with around 7% of the tens of thousands of calls it receives.
