The new normal: Irish Government gives itself power to extend lockdown measures beyond next year if they see fit




 

It’s beginning to look like covid, the pandemic and the restrictions are here to stay for the very foreseeable future.

The Irish Government has given itself the power to extend lockdown measures beyond next year if they see fit.

The new deadline that had been set for February 22, 2022, is now likely to be greatly extended as the Government seeks to tighten its grip on the country.

The new power is expected to be signed into law in December.
