In fairness.
Failte Ireland is expected to publish guidelines later today for the reopening of the hospitality industry, including measures for indoor and outdoor dining
This morning.
Via RTÉ News:
The guidelines are expected to say that tables will have to be a metre apart for both indoor and outdoor dining.
But there will be one key difference in the approach to indoor hospitality, it will have a time limit unlike the service that will be offered outdoors.
There is also set to be a strong emphasis on ventilation when it comes to indoor dining.
Outdoor hospitality is expected to resume on 7 June, but Cabinet must decide on Friday when the sector can serve customers indoors again.
Time limit on indoor dining expected as hospitality guidelines due out (RTÉ)
Meanwhile…
I know there are a handful of people saying just open up en masse. The reality is that’s breaking the law and we’ll be shut down & lose our licence.
Giving that message means it’s ok to shoot someone because you don’t like them or rob a house because you want to https://t.co/gZ03UwJrOv

Can you think of one ex-judge of the Irish Courts who has spoken up for the rights and liberties of the citizen in the face of the State’s onslaught against them?https://t.co/FcerKBW0SC

An EU rights body has claimed Ireland has one of the highest rates of people being stopped by the police in the European Union
If you’re popping out to the shop
In Ireland, it’s a likely a cop
All dressed up in blue
With little to do
Will fill time by making you stop
