Covid-19 Vaccine Roll-out: Statements
Dail Éireann — 2021-05-27
============================================================

Seán Canney (IND), Galway East

In the remaining time I wish to go back to the TAPS issue. I am concerned that if we have a cliff-edge scenario, bearing in mind what we have been through, and what the Minister of State described, nursing homes will be at risk again. We have to be very careful about that. Given the work the nursing homes have done, we need to support them because they will be doing a lot more work on safety measures going forward.
I welcome the Minister's comments on US travel. I hope we will be first to invite the Americans to Ireland and to get the green aeroplanes back into Shannon Airport and the regional airports as well.
