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:

To add to the last point my colleague made, when we mentioned about secondary markets leaving, it was in the context of the experience of Belgium and Denmark which had brought legislation in and it was one of the consequences of it. The question was that if it had happened in other jurisdictions it is not unlikely to happen here if that was the case. It is purely in that context that it was mentioned.
