Ruairí Ó Murchú (SF), Louth

We await an inquiry into the State's response to Covid-19. I have spoken to the Taoiseach previously about the 23 people who died in Dealgan House and that the families met with the Minister for Health, Deputy Donnelly, and the Minister of State, Deputy Butler. They were promised a mechanism to provide them with answers, justice and closure. They are still awaiting a response. I want to know if there is any further information about the timeline. Is it going to be set up for the summer? Will there be engagement with the families? Will there be modules? Will we get to grips with what happened in nursing homes?
