Hospitality industry to meet Dept of An Taoiseach over reopening compliance

Less than 10% of premises have been found to be non-compliant with the law by HSE environmental health officers

The hospitality industry will meet with the Department of the Taoiseach on Tuesday to discuss the impact of reopening the sector three weeks ago on Covid numbers.

A three-week review of reopening had been envisaged, so sources say that the meeting is "not a showdown by any means", but the industry will "be reminded of its obligations" to ensure compliance.
