A High Court challenge by two women who were arrested at Dublin Airport after initially refusing to enter mandatory hotel quarantine has been adjourned until next month.
Niamh Mulreany, 25, and 30-year-old Kirstie McGrath had been detained in Mountjoy Prison before their bail conditions were changed and they completed their quarantine at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Santry.
The women had flown back from Dubai on 2 April and were arrested and charged with breaching Section 38 of the Health (amendment) act 2021 by refusing to be detained in quarantine following their alleged refusal to go to the hotel.
They were granted bail the following day, but were unable to take it up due to the financial conditions imposed on them.

A High Court challenge is being taken against the Sandymount cycle trial, which would limit vehicular traffic to one outbound lane along the seafront.
Works to allow a two-way cycle track on Strand Road are under way and the one-way restrictions are due to start on 1 March.
However, Independent Councillor Mannix Flynn and local resident Peter Carvill have applied for a Judicial Review to stop it going ahead.
