Travel agencies throughout the State have effectively been living under level 5 restrictions since March. They have no destinations to sell and nobody to sell them to. They are in dire straits. The Tánaiste recently said on the radio that travel agencies would qualify for the Covid restrictions support scheme. Two days later, the Minister for Finance, Deputy Paschal Donohoe, said they would not be included. There is confusion out there. Can the Tánaiste confirm whether the Government will include travel agencies in the Covid restrictions support scheme, given their dire financial predicament?
