Limerick s Live 95
Search By Live95 News Team The Catholic Bishop of Limerick Dr Brendan Leahy has issued a five-point plan around funerals.
In a statement to Live95 News Bishop Leahy said while we must preserve our great culture of compassion towards the bereaved, we must also stay away from funerals or further lives will be put at risk.

The Bishop says in accordance with government guidelines only 10 people should attend funerals, even if this means immediate family cannot attend.
