Calls for the number of people allowed to attend funerals to be raised

Under the current Level 5 restrictions, only 10 people are able to attend a funeral, and Mass services must be held online.

There are calls for the limits on the number of people allowed to attend a funeral to be raised.

David McGowan, a funeral director in Ballina in Co Mayo, believes the limit on the number of people who can attend a funeral should be raised to 35.
