950. To ask the Minister for Health the number of consultations he has had with the national immunisation advisory committee, NIAC, regarding persons who are immunosuppressed and their wish to receive Covid-19 vaccines sooner than planned; if he has outlined the stress that many of these patients are under as a consequence of nearly a full year of cocooning; and his plans to assist this cohort of persons.
