Childcare: Impact of Covid-19

I appreciate that. The message to take away for us, as public representatives and Teachtaí Dála, is that the issue of the clawback of parental leave needs to be addressed. There has to be recognition of healthcare workers in respect of the amount of parental leave and other leave that they have taken to meet their childcare needs. The State owes them a service or favour in that respect in terms of seeking to claw that back.
Is Ms Ní Sheaghdha confident that all of her colleagues will have access to childcare on 29 June?
