The Housing Minister has admitted there are “no guarantees” that the construction sector will reopen on April 5.
Ireland’s Level Five lockdown is set to continue until at least that date, with the construction sector being prioritised for reopening.
Darragh O’Brien had pushed for building sites to return this week, but those hopes were dashed when Nphet advised the Government to focus instead on the phased reopening of schools.
While Taoiseach Micheal Martin has targeted April 5 for the return of the building sector, Mr O’Brien conceded on Friday that he cannot guarantee that.
