A bill is being prepared just in case they're needed

The Cabinet will approve the drafting of new laws around mandatory mask-wearing this morning.

A bill is being prepared which would allow the government to reintroduce a mask mandate.

 

No settings have been identified and sources say there are no immediate plans for a return of mandatory mask-wearing.

It’s being approved as a cautionary measure ahead of the winter as all legislation around mask-wearing has lapsed.
