NPHET to issue recommendation on whether it believes pubs can reopen safely on August 10th
Mr Cribben added: “It is impossible to overstate the crisis facing the sector that accepted the Government decision to close pubs back in March but now is forced to stand aside as uncontrolled environments such as house parties are allowed to take place. The pub is a controlled and regulated environment where social distancing can be safely maintained.”
Publicans have also criticised the failure of the Government to provide them with guidelines about measures to be put in place to allow pubs to reopen safely. “Pubs across the country can’t continue to be left in limbo. It is creating intolerable pressure for publicans, their staff and suppliers,” Mr O’Keeffe said.He questioned how many times the Government were going to “walk an entire industry up that hill of uncertainty.”
He added: “No other industry is facing this level of insecurity and no other sector has been singled out in a way that the pubs of this country have been.”
