Impact of Covid-19: Tourism, Arts and Entertainment Sector
Ms Jenny De Saulles:
They are coming together to inspect premises against the health and safety guidelines. As for the definition of a substantial meal, to return to Mr. Kelly's point, it was about defining a gastropub, that is, a pub that serves food. The definition was determined as a meal of about €9. It was intended to be a meal as opposed to a bag of crisps and a pint. As Mr. Kelly stated, for this phase it is only restaurants that are open, not pubs.
