Paul Murphy (PBP), Dublin South-West

It is almost a year since our Workplace Ventilation (Covid-19) Bill 2021 passed through Second Stage. At that time the Minister of State, Deputy English, stated that we wanted to see it speedily and effectively implemented. He was going to call me that afternoon to see how we could have regulations to get this implemented because we do not need legislation. Where are the regulations? What has happened? We are back into winter. The issue of ventilation is going to be central in regard to the spread of Covid-19 again. What has the Government done to ensure that workers have the right to clean air?
