681. Deputy Francis Noel Duffy asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if a facility can host one summer camp with several different groups of 15 persons provided they are kept separate. [12108/20]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe Government Roadmap on Reopening Society and Business and the prevailing public health guidance currently permits the running of outdoor summer camps, provided that the group does not exceed 15 persons, including coaches and trainers. From the 29th of June, indoor summer camps are permitted.
Different groups of 15 are permitted provided that there is sufficient space in the facility concerned to do so in accordance with social distancing requirements and that they act completely independent of each other with no mixing between groups and no sharing of equipment. Set down, drop off and collection times should be staggered in order to reduce the risk of transmission.
The holding of all events, including summer camps, are subject to the Phases 3 and 4 restrictions on numbers for public gatherings, indoors and outdoors, and other important public health advice.
