Business group ISME is calling for alternative ways of dealing with Covid-19 to be implemented, rather than a national lockdown.
The group has contacted the 5 TDs in Wicklow requesting that the government responds in a more strategic manner.
It says it can no longer tolerate a situation where the State's only response to Covid-19 is to repeatedly furlough tens of thousands of workers.
ISME is also encouraging TD’s to advocate for alternative solutions in line with International best practice including Australia, New Zealand and those Pacific Rim countries that have managed to control the spread of Covid-19 with robust border quarantine measures; strong public health infrastructure; good testing infrastructure; and crucially, a solid legal framework for quarantine and isolation.
