Harris: There may be need for more stringent checks in airports

Minister for Health Simon Harris has said he is not ruling out “more stringent” checks for people travelling into Irish airports.

“Particularly as we potentially move out of the very, very serious restrictions that are in place, there may then be a need for more stringent checks on the airports to make sure that while we’re all doing what we’re meant to be doing here, that we don’t have other people coming in who aren’t taking it as seriously in their country as we are here,” he told the Pat Kenny show on Newstalk.
