Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Briefing by ICTU, HSA and CIF Representatives on the Reopening of the Construction Industry

Dr. Sharon McGuinness:

We are working through that final number and I would prefer not to give an exact number because we are still in discussions. We have a range of protocols working to ensure that support is put in place to ensure full oversight and compliance with the protocol.

The challenge is that we are reopening the road map, as the Deputy said, on a staged basis. We are on day two and we have already been out and have done over 80 unannounced inspections. We are confident that we can get to them. In a general sense in any given year we do 10,000 inspections, even with that number.
