Well, this is surprising.

Here are some of the highlights for me.
"
The provisions of the proposed Regulation regarding the issuance of vaccination, test or
recovery certificates as well as the trust framework should be suspended once the COVID-19
pandemic has been overcome, since as of that point, there is no justification to requiring
citizens to present health documents when exercising their right to free movement. At the
same time, their applications should resume if the WHO declares another pandemic due to an
outbreak of SARS-CoV-2, a variant thereof, or similar infectious diseases with epidemic
potential.
• Impact assessment
In view of the urgency, the Commission did not carry out an impact assessment.
• Fundamental rights
This proposal positively affects the fundamental right of freedom of movement
• Implementation plans and monitoring, evaluation and reporting arrangements
One year after the WHO has declared the COVID-19 pandemic to have ended, the
Commission will prepare a report on the application of this Regulation.
