Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation

Thomas Gould (SF), Cork North-Central

I would like to ask the Tánaiste about his recent comments on the Covid-19 crisis and the potential for another lockdown in January. This is an extremely worrying time for people. We are being asked to follow public health advice, but the Tánaiste is now projecting that advice. To some people, his comments mean that they will have a limited window to see their families and friends. This will push some people into socialising to make the most of the short period. Others are scared that they will not be able to see their parents, grandparents or families for an extended period after Christmas. We need to give people certainty.
