Proposal to ease restrictions said to keep schools closed

Health and treasury officials are meeting to discuss plans to gradually ease closure restrictions.

The proposal being debated, according to Channel 12, would see 30 percent of workers return to work next week, 50% by early May, and some stores reopen by mid-May.

But the plan keeps schools closed, raising the question of how employees with young children would return to work under the proposed scenario.

No decisions are expected before Saturday night.
