The health spokesperson for Northern Ireland's Alliance Party has cancelled a family holiday in Italy after criticism of the trip.
Paula Bradshaw, MLA for South Belfast, had earlier defended the scheduled holiday, despite public health guidance advising against non-essential travel.
Speaking on RTÉ's Morning Ireland today Ms Bradshaw criticised travel advice from the British government saying there are massive absurdities around the guidance.
She said travel corridors are making Northern Ireland very vulnerable and she would like to see a more consistent, whole island of Ireland approach to travel.
