Rose Conway-Walsh (SF), Mayo

From Monday, 85,000 students will attend universities in Dublin. Tens of thousands of those will be criss-crossing the country. The Minister's instructions were that higher and third level institutions should consider enhanced protective measures. What does that mean and what is the Government's plan? For instance, should these students go home at the weekend and is the Minister fearful of them spreading the virus? For students who are being asked to pay for accommodation months in advance, will they get their money back if the levels increase to 3 and 4?
