However, the official advice is for people to avoid all non-essential travel as many countries still grapple with Covid-19 – leading to some confusion. “The Tánaiste believes there should be a green list as was previously agreed by government. But if the travel advice for countries on the green list isn’t different to advice for other countries, then we would be better off not having a green list at all.

Following the delays, there have been reports of tensions among coalition partners over the publication of the list.
