Equity Union Says Government Is Moving Too Slow In Allowing The Live Entertainment Sector Re-Open

The Irish Actors Unions 'Equity' has become the latest organisation to urge the Government to immediately publish a roadmap for re-opening theatres.

The union, which represents workers in the live performance and theatre sector, says it's unforgivable that Minister Catherine Martin has been excluded from the Government's Covid-19 sub-committee.

Equity says different rules on the island of Ireland are becoming very difficult to understand, where concerts are taking place in Northern Ireland, while theere isn't even an agreed roadmap in place in the Republic Of Ireland.
