Some workers in section 39 organisations were not included in the group receiving the special Covid-19 recognition payment. I realise the Minister has made statements previously on this issue. The group I am particularly inquiring about is Acquired Brain Injury Ireland, the staff of which worked in similar or the same conditions as those workers who were included in the payment. Will he clarify the rationale for why some groups had to be left out of the payment?
