The Taoiseach previously committed to engaging with all relevant stakeholders, including advocacy groups, families of those affected and front-line care workers, on the forthcoming inquiry into Covid-19. In the media, I see the Government has cleared the terms of reference for the inquiry. However, from my engagement with stakeholders such as Care Champions and others, I am aware they have yet to have any input into it. I want to see an inquiry that is full, transparent and efficiently time-bound to ensure clear facts are established, especially relating to older people, those in nursing homes and other vulnerable groups of people. How, when and with whom does the Taoiseach intend to engage to realise his previous commitment to me, this House and the stakeholders?
