Covid-19 Tests Dail Éireann — 2021-06-22 ============================================================ Aengus Ó Snodaigh (SF), Dublin South-Central I ask the Minister to explain the reasons for the last-minute decision not to use antigen testing, as had previously been announced, for the pilot test event in the Iveagh Gardens recently. Will any of the pilot live test events be used to test concert or gig conditions that can be replicated, if successful, at smaller venues across the State? The idea was to follow the lead of other countries in Europe which have had pilot test events. --- Source: Houses of the Oireachtas.
