Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

I am not familiar with the outcome of any meeting that occurred yesterday. However, the Government is very keen to make this payment to front-line and essential workers who were exposed to Covid during the pandemic period. Negotiations and consultations are still underway with unions. We want to make that payment as soon as possible and in the next few weeks if we can.
