Special Committee on Covid-19 Response
Congregated Settings: Meat Plants
Ms Edel McGinley:
It was 855 in a five-week period. That would be unusual. That is a quarter of our work for a year. We had a huge spike in calls and emails where we were responding to people. This was mainly around Covid payments, health and safety, and if people did not have access to exceptional needs payments and such. That was a huge spike in our services in that time.
