To ask the Minister for Health if the HSE has examined the participation of pharmacists in the vaccination programme; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that up to 2,000 pharmacist vaccinators are available to participate in the programme; if drive-through vaccination, which has been done successfully in other countries, has been examined; if so, the status of plans for same; if not, the reason; if the opening of vaccination centres on a 24/7 basis is being examined; the percentage of on site personnel in centres employed by the HSE who are deferred from other HSE services; the other initiatives being examined to increase vaccination participation; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.
