811. To ask the Minister for Health if the practice of redeploying speech and language therapists and other allied health professionals to Covid-19 testing will be ceased; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that the practice will have implications for students studying to be speech and language therapists and their requirement for student placement in view of the fact that there could be a lack of available speech and language therapists to act as practice educators; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
