Professor Anthony Staines:

Largely, pubs have regulated themselves. There have been exceptions. There is an issue with several pubs in Ireland. We could adopt a model they have in Belgium. If there is misbehaviour in a pub there in respect of Covid-19, the pub is closed for 14 days and the owner of the pub is fined. Here, it depends on waiting for the next licensing sessions, which could easily be a year or two years away.
