Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions
Dail Éireann — 2020-12-03
============================================================

Alan Kelly (LAB), Tipperary

I thank the Tánaiste. I appreciate his honesty. We do need to decide because private vaccination is an issue. Considering that we must control the process by which the vaccine programme is rolled out, my question is very legitimate. I would appreciate it if it were considered by the Government because it would require legislation.
On data management, we may need emergency legislation. We will support it. The Dáil will be sitting for only one more week this year. Is there an issue, therefore? The data being collated will be intense. We have had issues with data in the past. Will the Tánaiste please consider this?
The Tánaiste is the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment. I hear on the radio in the morning that many events are being planned. Longitude is being planned. I am sure the Tánaiste and I would like to get to concerts sometime next year. What advice has the Tánaiste for companies that are spending a considerable amount on planning events? Should they expect them to go ahead?
