Level 5 Restrictions

News
It has been decided that from midnight on Wednesday 21 October 2020, the country will be placed on Level 5 under the Plan for Living with COVID-19, for six weeks. This action is based on a review of the current public health advice and is in response to the deteriorating situation with the virus in Ireland.
Here are some of the key points –
🔹 Stay at home, exercise within 5km of home.
🔹 No social or family gatherings. Outside of your home, you can meet with one other household.
🔹 ‘Support bubbles’ between two households will be implemented for lone parents and vulnerable people.
🔹 Pandemic Unemployment Payment will be restored to €350 for those on €400 or more who are laid off during the coming lockdown.
🔹 The Employment Wage Subsidy Scheme set to improve.
🔹 Only essential retailers will be allowed to stay open.
🔹 Construction deemed necessary and can continue to operate.
🔹 Gyms, Pools and Leisure centres must close.
🔹 Bars, restaurants and cafés will no longer be allowed to seat people outdoors for meals, and instead will only offer takeaway and delivery services.
🔹 Schools, creches and other childcare services will also remain open.
🔹 Non-contact training can continue for school-aged children, outdoors only in pods of 15.
🔹 Number of guests allowed at weddings will stay at 25. The 25 includes the couple getting married and celebrant.
🔹 Religious services remain online. Funerals may have up to 25 mourners at the church.
