Pat Rabbitte (Dublin South West, Labour)

I would like to say a word in support of the substance of the amendment before we dispose of it. If we are talking about the public disorder, anti-social behaviour, vandalism and binge drinking phenomenon, what Deputy Ó Snodaigh has highlighted contributes much more to dangerous, anti-social behaviour in communities, neighbourhoods and estates than what we have discussed in previous sections of the Bill. It is a classic example of the point I was trying to make about enacting law here that cannot or will not be enforced. When the Minister tells Deputy Ó Snodaigh that "dial a can" is already illegal, it is patently obvious to any of us who represent certain communities that it is not being enforced.
