Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

State Response to Recent Spike in Covid-19 Cases

Mr. Paul Reid:

I will make two brief responses. The e-locator form, the development of which we have been working on from the HSE's perspective, is now ready to go live, if not today or tomorrow, then shortly. It will allow people to put in their details before travelling. Regarding testing at airports, we are working on reaching a decision with NPHET. It will be a question of the prioritisation of resources, but we are working through the process with NPHET in terms of timing and how and where testing would be done.
