I want to raise the case of Anne Kelly. Anne is 86 years old and is housebound in Ashbourne, County Meath. She is waiting for her Covid vaccine and getting more anxious by the day. She feels like she has been forgotten about. She could be forgiven for this because, in this Chamber on 25 March, a month ago, the Minister said the first phase of the vaccination programme for the housebound was completed in Dublin and the north-east. Mrs. Kelly has not had her vaccine and is distraught. She spent Easter Sunday in tears according to her daughter, Adrienne, who is a fantastic advocate and who, like others, can get no answers. By everyone's Covid-19 measure, the housebound are the most vulnerable. Age is the defining risk factor. The lack of information is very frustrating. Are there 3,000, 1,000 or 300 on the list? All of these figures have been quoted in the past week. Could the Taoiseach please give Anne Kelly and others in the same position some hope, show them they are not forgotten about and tell us when they will get the vaccine?

We want to give every housebound person in this situation a vaccine. I do not know whether the Deputy has spoken to the GP or the HSE about this but these are issues that ordinarily are dealt with by engaging with the local doctor and HSE. The National Ambulance Service has been doing this and it has been doing an excellent job. Quite a significant number of housebound people have been vaccinated. I do not think the Deputy's approach is the best way to try to proceed. I will say no more than that. I just believe there are ways of sorting this out fairly quickly. If the Deputy gives me the details, we will pursue the matter.

I will send on the information.
