Covid-19 (Childcare): Statements
Dail Éireann — 2021-02-04
============================================================

Kathleen Funchion (SF), Carlow-Kilkenny

I have one more question, on the vaccine. There has been some confusion over whether it is category 6 or category 11. Category 6 refers to "key workers", not childcare workers or early years professionals. I wonder whether the Minister could clarify whether they are in category 6. Are they still in category 11? If the Minister does not know, he may revert to me.
