The Laois County Council chief is hopeful of a summer reopening for both Portlaoise and Portarlington public leisure centres.
CEO John Mulholland has expressed hope that they can reopen in summer under shared management, if the public health advice on Covid-19 allows it.
“Any level from 1 to 5 of Covid does not provide any kind of optimism to reopening leisure centres. We are very much at the whim of public health advice and progress with vaccinations and other public health measures. We don’t have wisdom or knowledge in relation to when you could possibly open a leisure centre or swimming pool to large members of the public.
