Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

As I said to the Deputy, the Government is committed to recognising the sacrifices that public sector workers, in particular front-line healthcare workers, have made. We are very conscious that across the board extraordinary efforts were made and continue to be made in respect of dealing with the pandemic by workers.
The Government is actively examining this. We want to get the right outcome. The Deputy is correct in saying that it is a Government decision. The Government has to empower the HSE and to give it the resources to enable these decisions-----
