It is really challenging since it is very easy to say something is 100 m from a point. There will always be a sign indicating where the hospital is. Is it not very easy to design a sign that clearly indicates an area is within the precincts of the hospital and therefore people are not entitled to protest beyond that point? I can see huge problems for An Garda Síochána in prosecuting on this aspect unless a clear demarcation is put in place.
