Self-employed and receiving pandemic payment - does doing an hour of lecturing a week

Hi, I’m a self-employed sole trader as my full time profession and work, understanding, has completely died since the pandemic. I’ve been asked to do two hours of lecturing a week, which I’ve done in the past (unrelated to my main profession). Does doing that small amount of lecturing - while I am in receipt of no income…

Hi,

I’m a self-employed sole trader as my full time profession and work, understanding, has completely died since the pandemic. I’ve been asked to do two hours of lecturing a week, which I’ve done in the past (unrelated to my main profession). Does doing that small amount of lecturing - while I am in receipt of no income from my main profession - preclude me from receiving the pandemic payment?

Thanks in advance.

Edit: Thread title is a mess. Should obviously say two hours.

I think this is being looked at currently but I don't think an announcement has been made yet. https://www.thejournal.ie/micheal-martin-interview-thejournal-covid-dublin-5211430-Sep2020/
