Publicans Fear For The Future If Restrictions Remain In Place For The Foreseeable Future

Publicans in Wicklow and around the country say they'll need a bailout if they're asked to stay closed much longer.

The Licenced Vintners Association's been reacting to comments made by the Health Minister at the weekend.
Simon Harris says it would be impossible for people to be in a packed pub until there's a vaccine for the coronavirus.
But that's not expected before 2021 - and Association’s Boss Donal O'Keeffe says most pubs will go bust if they have to wait that long.
