Green Party leader Eamon Ryan told Dáil that the plan, due to be released on September 14, will allow people to return to some kind of normalcy in the coming months.

This plan is expected to contain a loosening of international travel restrictions and Mr. Ryan states that it will contain “a planned approach that enables connectivity.”

Ryan said the plan “would restore livelihoods and protect lives.”

He said this medium-term roadmap “is just as important if not more important” than the next budget.

“The government has to start now to prepare for the next six, nine, 18 months, a medium-term approach, where in the absence of a vaccine we have to manage it and in that we have to manage international travel,” he said. said.

Responding to the questioning of the social democrats TD Róisín Shortall, said: “It is as important, if not more important in my mind, than the Budget we face, because the way we manage it will allow us to return to a certain normality of life as we manage it with Covid and try to minimize it and try to suppress it. “
