Covid-19 (Health): Statements
Dail Éireann — 2020-05-21
============================================================

Alan Farrell (CC), Dublin Fingal

I have the Deputy's point and I understand he feels strongly on the matter. I completely understand that he wishes to represent his constituents on the concerns he has as, I am sure, do other Deputies.
It has already been raised in the House. The matter was dealt with already. The Business Committee, of which I am not a member, may address it if it chooses to do so, but it is not a matter for the Chair to make a ruling regarding the interpretation of health advice that has been provided to the Oireachtas authorities.
