The Hard Shoulder Highlights

Is it Groundhog Day in terms of whether schools can return?

The Oireachtas Covid Committee met again on Friday. On the agenda was the issue of schools going back in September, with the Department of Education relaying what they believe is necessary in order for that to happen safely. And the issues around meat plants also came up, and whether they are safe places for people to work. Matt Carthy is Sinn Fein TD for Cavan-Monaghan.  He was at the Committee meeting, and he filled Ivan in on what questions were answered, and what still remained up in the air.
