Dear All
You will be aware of the newly reported Brazilian variant of COVID.
By way of maximising the communication with people who may have travelled from Brazil in recent weeks, we are requesting Departments to reach out to their agencies and other organisations with which their sectors interact, including through local channels, to facilitate the following information reaching (and, as far as possible, being acted on by) the intended audience:
We ask you to consider, though not limited to, any areas where Brazilian populations are known to be working or living and any national agencies including those involved in the Regulators Forum.
This is to supplement the existing communications through Health.
It was great to see how well Kerry has done in the Irish Businesses Against Litter survey.
Considering everything has happened in 2020 its wonderful to see all the work that’s been
done. Even though the normal groups were not allowed during the pandemic it is obvious that
people have continued to do their best the keep the County clean.
The biggest problem now seems to be empty coffee cups and used P.E. so although its great
that we can still get our take away coffees and we’re great to wear our masks lets remember
to dispose of them the right way.
Once again well done to all involved in keeping us clean and green. !!!!!!!!!!!
