Arlene Foster, the DUP leader and Northern Ireland's First Minister, believes the British government should share vaccines stocks with Ireland once its programme is complete.
She said she recommended to British Prime Minister Boris Johnson that he do so when he came to Enniskillen earlier this month.
According to her, she will make the point to him again and she believes the proposal is a runner. She gives two reasons for his stance.
There is the practical reality of a more advanced vaccination programme and lower infection rates on the northern side of what is a porous land border.
