Minister for Agriculture says 60 per cent of employees have returned to work

The Health and Safety Authority has found a “high level of compliance” across meat processing plants that have been inspected in recent days, the Dáil has been told.

The Minister confirmed that 35 outbreaks have been associated with workplaces with 879 employees testing positive of which 828 were in meat processing plants where there were 16 clusters of two or more cases. He said a “cloud of shame” hung over the industry and called for a task force to investigate their terms and conditions.Mr Creed said he was “shocked” that Mr Smith did not accept the figures that were published. “You are entitled to your opinion but you’re not entitled to your own facts,” he said.

The two Ministers were answering questions in relation to the outbreak of Covid-19 cases among employees in meat factories. He added that “there are many lessons to be learned here and the Government has to front up in relation to the mistakes they’ve made”.Mr Creed said however that the outbreak control teams had the authority to close down plants if it was required. He did not agree mistakes were made and said it was an evolving situation.

Why do they need compliance now They all had it so are immune

If a high level of compliance leads to high Covid19 cluster levels in meat factories, it is time to shut the meat factories.

And because public transport are operating social distancing, nobody can get on a bus to get there.
