Are the representatives of Meat Industry Ireland in a position to provide that? They have already agreed kindly to provide the information with regard to the unfortunate people who contracted Covid-19, whether they were of Irish nationality, non-Irish but EU nationality, or third country nationality. Is it possible to receive a breakdown from its members on whether the wage subsidy scheme was paid in respect of Irish nationals, non-Irish EU nationals and third country nationals? Is that something that could be provided? This is about the State's response. It would be useful to know what exactly the State temporary wage subsidy scheme is being used to subsidise.
