Covid-19: Cabinet agrees to Level Three restrictions

Government sources have confirmed that instead of moving to Level 5 as requested, Level 3 restrictions will be introduced across the entire country.
Cabinet has agreed to move Ireland to Level Three Covid-19 restrictions in an attempt to curb the rising Covid-19 cases and in defiance of the National Public Health Emergency Team's (Nphet) advice to raise lockdown limits to Level Five.
These measures will come into effect from midnight tomorrow.
