Photo:Gareth Chaney/CollinsNew coronavirus restrictions look increasingly likely for Dublin with an emergency Cabinet Committee on Covid-19 scheduled for Friday morning. The unscheduled meeting was arranged today in anticipation of the National Public Health Emergency Team (Nphet) recommending moving Dublin into level three restrictions under the Government's recently published plan for living with the virus. The recommendations of both groups will then be considered by the Cabinet Committee on Covid-19 which is chaired by Taoiseach Micheál Martin on Friday morning. This group will then make recommendations which will have to be agreed on by the cabinet before restrictions can be introduced in Dublin. An incorporeal Cabinet meeting may be held on Friday to sign off on the new rules for the Capital.
