New hospitality guidelines delayed over disagreement about number of patrons at a table

Fáilte Ireland suggested a limit of six per table but Government officials are considering a higher number. 

Guidelines on the reopening of pubs and restaurants have been delayed as officials have yet to agree on the total number of people allowed at one table.

Fáilte Ireland had been due to publish the latest guidance around indoor dining, which is expected to return in July, as well as outdoor dining which will be allowed from next month.
