The Health Minister wants to see new laws introduced to regulate people travelling into our ports and airports.
It follows reports Gardai may call to passengers' homes to make sure they're in self-isolation for two weeks.
It's after a third of people arriving at Dublin Airport recently, didn't fill in forms properly about where they were staying.
Simon Harris says legislation could be needed.
"I do think we need to take further measures to toughen up at our airports and ports.
"We already have the form that you have to fill in, you can be contacted to check that you are self isolating but I'd like to underpin this by regulation so it is the law of the land.
"It is tricky, it's not easy but I don't think it's impossible either."
