The Finance Ministry is pushing the government to get rid of the Green Pass policy, arguing that it is no longer relevant when case numbers are so high and when both those who are vaccinated and those who are not are able to contract the coronavirus relatively easily, Channel 12 reports.

Instead, the ministry is pushing to only use the Purple Pass, which requires businesses to limit crowd sizes, the network says, while clarifying that no decision on the matter is likely to be made in the next week.
