Micheál Martin, the Taoiseach (prime minister) of the Republic of Ireland, on Thursday evening announced a plan for the reopening of parts of Irish society, including allowing the resumption of public worship.
Beginning on May 10, the government will allow religious services to resume, with a limit of 50 people in attendance, regardless of the size of the worship space or whether worshippers have been vaccinated.
