Social Welfare (Covid-19) (Amendment) Bill 2020: Committee and Remaining Stages
Dail Éireann — 2020-07-28
============================================================

Seán Sherlock (LAB), Cork East

I am very conscious of Deputy Gannon's earlier intervention. On the point the Minister made, in my earlier contribution I said that there were questions about the regulation, as the travel advisory on which it is based has no legal standing.
People were not informed of the changes so there was potentially a legitimate expectation they could travel under the normal rules that previously applied. I have also asked other questions of the Minister which have not been answered. There are further sections to be discussed on which I have questions which have not been answered.
