It seems to me that there was a problem and that the complaints were not being treated appropriately previously, if the authority had 80 such complaints yesterday.
In early April, the HSA was advising workers and those who complained that it "did not have the powers to enforce the public health guidelines". It said it could not do anything about this. This was said repeatedly to many people. Does the authority now have the powers to enforce the public health guidelines and did anything change legally to result in that?
