Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation

General Scheme of the Sale of Tickets (Sporting and Cultural Events) Bill 2017: Discussion

4:00 pm

Mr. Kieran Grace:

What we point out is that in countries that have brought in price caps, it has not eliminated it entirely. We cite the examples of Belgium, Denmark etc. We are trying to present the evidence here of what we have gleaned through the public consultation on the issue. We are not saying it will not have an effect. We said in our submission that it will help reduce it but it will not reduce it entirely. Deputy Quinlivan acknowledged that as well.
