I do not wish to argue the epidemiological outcome of Covid and how we are doing, but to set out what might be of benefit. Deputies and other representatives in Leinster House would be very happy to meet the Department to discuss these issues. The committee is not the place to do it. Some of the issues are quite small and a quick decision could get them answered. That is what all of us want to hear. We want to see movement. I accept it is difficult and there are new learnings. We are all on a learning curve here. It would be better if we learned together, and we can do this by having engagement. I seek engagement with the Department and any other member of the committee who wants to come with me, to discuss these issues to see whether we can come up with some resolutions for people.
