Deputy Padraig Mac Lochlainn has said that all non-essential businesses in Ireland need to close.
The Inishowen TD posted a video to Twitter which showed a building site in Dublin.
Workers can be seen arriving for work on the site within close proximity of eachother and are not practising social distancing.
Deputy Mac Lochlainn commented on the video and said “These are scenes from a construction site that have been sent on to me.
“This is why we need to close down all non-essential businesses across the island now and ensure that social distancing is maintained at all times.”
Building sites are among a list of businesses which are allowed to continue to operate at present.
Others include supermarkets, DIY stores, chemists and fuel suppliers among others.
