I apologise for being late. I had to attend another function and I could not get here until now. I can remember walking through Talbot Street 15 years ago when tobacco was openly sold but that problem was solved. I do not go down Talbot Street much now but I do not believe tobacco is sold as openly as it was then. However, illegal diesel and petrol is now coming through on that basis. Was something specific done ten or 15 years ago, and Mr. Hickey would know that better than the rest of us, that put a stop to that and how can something similar be done to address the problem of illegal sale of fuel now?
