Covid contingencies in place for Steam Packet

Chief Minister Howard Quayle says there are plans in place to cope if too many Steam Packet crew fall ill with coronavirus.

During yesterday's press conference, he faced questions about the disease's effect on the Island's lifeline ferry services.

It's after one Ben my Chree crew member tested positive for coronavirus last week.

Mr Quayle said the Department of Infrastructure had contingency plans in place, but it was unlikely they'd be needed.
