Alcohol Consumption by Young People: Statements.

 

Reference was made to the pubs that have been closed as a result of serving under age customers. This is a marvellous measure. The vast majority of publicans that I know – and I know many from having travelled around this country in almost 24 years of public life – are decent people. They have no wish to violate in any way the law pertaining to the serving of alcohol to under age people. Regrettably, however, there is a significant percentage of people who have to be weeded out of the vintner trade.
