Micheál Martin has named February 28, Monday week, as the day when the law on the wearing of face masks will be scrapped.
The Taoiseach said the Government was able to move on this now because: “we are moving from the emergency phase of the pandemic to a new transitionary phase.”
Mr Martin was speaking after the latest letter from NPHET on Thursday night to Government recommended dropping the face mask rule for schools, public transport and workplaces.
