Vaccination Programme
Dail Éireann — 2023-04-20
============================================================

Denis Naughten (IND), Roscommon-Galway

Commitments were given the past two programmes for Government to introduce a no-fault vaccine compensation scheme. This was again promised by the former Taoiseach, Deputy Micheál Martin, in advance of the introduction of the Covid vaccination programme.
My engagement on this issue with various Ministers for Health has been ongoing for the past 250 months or more than two decades. We now have claims related to adverse reactions to the Covid vaccine. When will a compensation scheme be introduced in this State, as is the case in many other countries?
