Ireland is participating in a Procurement Exercise being operated by the European Commission on behalf of Member States to procure suitable, safe and effective vaccines, in sufficient quantities, to combat COVID-19. Six Advance Purchase Agreements (APA) have been negotiated by the Commission under this process to date.

The details of the contracts are commercially sensitive.

As this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the deputy directly.
