Opposition parties have been continuing to raise concerns over to fine people for breaching public health guidelines related to Covid 19.

On the spot fines could be €500, while there could also be small fines for those who throw house parties, or those who break the 5km travel restrictions.

Brid Smith is People Before Profit TD for Dublin South Central, and Declan Power is a security analyst.  They joined Kieran on Friday's edition of The Hard Shoulder to debate the fairness of the enforcement measures.
