Micheál Martin (Cork South Central, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

The Deputy's party is on the Northern Ireland Executive and has failed to gain the consensus required in respect of some of the issues she has raised. We will continue to work in a constructive fashion with the Northern Ireland Executive.

The measures on travel will not take weeks to implement; they will be implemented very quickly. It is time for consistency all around, from all sections of the House, including the Deputy's party, on this matter. As I said earlier, prolonged suppression is what is required. We will introduce legislation in respect of quarantining capacity and we look forward to the Deputy's support on that.
