Independent Kerry TD Michael Healy-Rae has said that he did not believe it was the job of shop keepers to enforce the wearing of face masks. He would be prepared to point out the signs saying that masks were mandatory, but he would not refuse entry to his shop.

As of yesterday, the wearing of face masks in retail settings is mandatory.
