Section 19 provides that a person who claims that prohibited conduct has been directed against him or her in any licensed premises may seek redress before the District Court. For this purpose, prohibited conduct is defined as discrimination against, or sexual harassment or harassment, of a person contrary to Part II of the Equal Status Act 2000, on, or at the point of entry to, licensed premises. The forms of redress currently available under the Equal Status Act are being extended to include temporary closure of the premises concerned. For example, if someone was refused admission to a premises on the basis of his or her skin colour or sexual orientation, this provision would give the District Court the function of deciding whether that happened. It will also enable the District Court, in addition to the other remedies which were available to the equality tribunal, to make a closure order to emphasise the gravity of the infringement of the rights in question in the eyes of the court.
