The Government has indicated its intention to consider proposals for later in the year on the holding of a limited number of pilot live events for arts, culture, sport and live entertainment (indoor and outdoor). This is to inform the safe reopening of these activities and events when the public health situation allows.

My Department will continue to liaise with all sectors under its remit including Horse Sport Ireland bearing in mind the importance of the protection of public health.
