It’s almost here. Whether you accept Taoiseach Simon Harris’s pledge that it will be “early September” or Tánaiste Micheál Martin’s undertaking that it will be “before mid-September” the procrastination road has almost run out for those who will have to organise Ireland’s inquiry into Covid-19.
It may not, of course, be called an inquiry. Mr Martin prefers the term “evaluation.” Mr Harris has described it as “a review.”
