The Vintners Federation of Ireland is hitting out at the Government for sending a Covid safety message by not allowing pubs to open.
Members across the country have been closed for the past 5 months with many Waterford pub owners saying they need to get back in business.
The National Public Health Emergency Team will decide on Tuesday, whether to reopen pubs on August 10th under Phase 4.
VFI Chief Executive, Padraig Cribben feels pubs that don't serve food have been unfairly targetted by the state.
