Mr. Donall O'Keeffe:

As it stands, however, those premises would get planning and meet the building regulations and the insurance requirements to run as cultural premises, not licensed premises. We are saying that if the law is to be amended to allow them to sell alcohol on the premises, their planning and all those other issues have to be amended to be the same as ours. If they are to sell alcohol on the premises, the requirements should be the same.
