I shall leave it at that and suggest that everyone in these congregated settings should be tested.
I have a question for the representatives of the Department of Justice and Equality. The ongoing public health advice provided by the HSE, and in its statement provided to us in advance today, single-room occupancy was mentioned three times, if not four times, as the public health advice. Why did the Department not follow the public health advice? Earlier it was mentioned that the Department has to go by HSE advice on testing. Why not the HSE advice on distancing?
