Since then, we have been dealing with the response to Covid-19 right across the UK.

The Government and Department are continuing to engage on this issue with the Executive and the Northern Ireland Minister of Health in particular and his department.</p><p><br> <br></p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 12/10/2020 16:41:28 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker
