Licensing of Indoor Events Bill 2001: Second Stage.

 

The committee, under the chairmanship of Mr. Justice Liam Hamilton, examined safety at major indoor and outdoor events and its final report made 73 recommendations, many of which relate to indoor concerts. Among the key recommendations is that all major promotions anticipating an attendance in excess of 2,000 – I am glad the Bill applies to events at which fewer people will attend – should be licensed on an individual basis by the District Court and that two months notice should be provided for an application for a license for a major indoor or outdoor concert.
