The first place to look is the gov.iewebsite. The Deputy will see the vaccination protocol is there and the report from the national immunisation advisory committee, NIAC, was published as well. That is all there.

The first level of key workers in the prioritisation are those who were involved in the vaccination programme. Many of them are covered in cohort 2, which are the front-line healthcare workers and, for example, people involved in supply chain logistics in moving the vaccines around. A lot of administration is involved behind the vaccinators, so they are key workers specifically for the vaccination programme. Another cohort is education essential workers, and another group is wider essential workers. A good place to look for that information is in the lists that were used for the Covid-19 measures.
