Gardaí are carrying out preliminary inquiries into an indoor gathering at the pub owned by Kerry TD Danny Healy-Rae. The image is understood to have been taken on July 16 - ten days before restrictions on indoor dining were lifted. A family wedding had taken place in Kerry that day with the ceremony and reception being hosted at a different venue. Independent.ie has learned that gardaí are now carrying out their own inquiries into this indoor gathering at the Jackie-Healy Rae Pub. The Kerry TD recently said that publicans had been “thrown to the wolves” by latest Government guidelines on indoor dining released by Fáilte Ireland.
