Meanwhile, on Thursday the Executive signalled a further set of relaxations.

From May 24, subject to review on May 20, Ministers have decided to increase numbers permitted for indoor gatherings, (not including domestic settings), to those permitted by a risk assessment or the venue. This will allow the resumption of community events, such as mother and toddler groups. Where the gathering is of more than 15 people, it must be an organised gathering with a risk assessment.

They also agreed to an increase in numbers for outdoor gatherings to 500 or capped at risk assessment level if lower. This would allow up to 500 spectators at any outdoor event. Any gatherings of over 30 people outdoors must be an organised gathering and would require a risk assessment. We would advise organisers to consider the use of Lateral Flow Tests for any planned larger events.

The Irish Cup Final on May 21 can be used as an event for logistical and operational learning permitting 1,000 spectators.
