Gardaí may be given the power to check passengers arriving in Ireland are self-isolating

Gardai may be given the power to check up on passengers arriving in Ireland to make sure they're self-isolating.

It's understood the government is considering the measure under new Covid-19 rules.

Gardai may call to the addresses of passengers to ensure they are adhering to self-isolation for two weeks after arrival.

It emerged last week a third of those arriving to Dublin Airport were not signing passenger location forms.
