Taoiseach Micheál Martin has warned Fianna Fáil TDs, senators and MEPs that we cannot let down our Covid-19 guard.
Mr Martin said that easing of restrictions will be slow and measured and that public health advice will be the guiding principle.
Earlier, the Taoiseach said the B117 variant remains a concern and it is informing a conservative and cautious approach from Government on restrictions. There are 357 in hospital at the moment, that is still higher than at the peak of the second wave, he told the Dáil.
He warned that if the country lets the guard down too quickly and this variant gets out of control again it will spread very rapidly.
