I introduced a Bill in 2017 on this. The matter is one of great concern to me and I did a lot of work around the issue.

Will the officials confirm that a condition of Ireland's Euro 2020 bid was that ticket touting legislation would be enacted? When is the deadline? It is bizarre to be talking about Euro 2020 at the end of December but it has been a bizarre year. When does the Department envisage that Ireland will be compliant with UEFA's request?
