MPs last night called for vaccine passports to be ruled out for funerals as a minister hinted they will not be imposed on pubs.
In a letter to Health Secretary Sajid Javid, the all-party group on funerals and bereavement said mourners should not be required to prove their vaccine status.
Chairman Sir John Hayes urged Mr Javid to recognise the 'unique and vital nature' of funerals.
He suggested that weddings and baptisms should also be exempt.
