For a long time now, there has not been an opportunity to have any debate on the Government response to Covid. The Government announced its response this week and it is talking about another version of the living with Covid plan, but it has not allowed any debate in the Dáil on the Government response. That is just not acceptable. When one combines that with the fact that there has not been any engagement with the Opposition since last November in terms of briefings, there is just no communication going on here at all.
