I am advised by Revenue that the goods in question arrived in Ireland on 6 January 2021. As a result of the UK leaving the EU, customs formalities apply to the movement of these goods.

Following normal risk assessment of goods movements undertaken by Revenue, it was determined that documentation needed to be provided to the Health Services Executive (HSE) before the goods could be released into free circulation. The relevant documentation was provided by the logistics company concerned on 21 January 2021 and upon receipt, the goods were released immediately.
