Dáil suspended and Cabinet restricting movements as Health Minister awaits Covid-19 test

Cabinet ministers are to restrict their movements and the Dáil has been suspended after the Health Minister began to feel unwell earlier today.

Stephen Donnelly is to contact his GP to begin the process of being tested.

The Ceann Comhairle announced that the Dail will be adjourned until next Tuesday.

He attended a meeting of the cabinet earlier to approve the Covid-19 plan and as a result other Ministers must now restrict their movements.

The Ceann Comhairle adjourned sittings of the Dáil until next week as no Ministers will now be available to take questions from TDs.
