Covid Testing for International Travel into and out of Ireland: Discussion
Mr. Muiris O'Connor:
Yes. We do not have a reimbursement facility for those who took tests on the assumption that they would be required. All I will say is that the public have guidance to have additional assurances regarding Covid, given the emergence of the Omicron variant. Any layers of protection that people come through with are always welcome. I regret what people might consider as an unnecessary expense but there is value in those tests being carried out, even when the regulation did not pertain.
