Clare TD – COVID Advice For TDs Would Be Unworkable In Other Workplaces

Clare’s Independent TD has admitted that advice related to the coronavirus which has been given to TDs would be unworkable in the vast majority of workplaces.

The COVID-19 committee, which met for the first time yesterday, was given medical advice that people who spend two hours in a room together over a 24 hour period would be considered a close contact.

It resulted in the decision to hold committee meetings lasting no more than 2 hours, with some participating via video link.
