Opposition politicians have branded the indoor dining legislation as "illogical, stupid and unworkable".
Some members of the Oireachtas Health Committee, on which sits Kildare TD, Bernard Durkan, say they're totally unhappy with the detail given by health officials on the bill.
However, they voted to waive the usual pre-legislative scrutiny on the bill by a margin of 8 to 6 - allowing it to proceed to the Dáil.
