Intoxicating Liquor Bill 2003: Second Stage.
Young people have been targeted in a big way in relation to the new culture of drinking, with some justification. If we reflect on the "Prime Time" programme, which was referred to during the debate on the Criminal Justice (Public Order) Bill – the young girl saying she was drinking 15 vodkas and Red Bull in any given night – I wonder who ordered the last five for her. I know if I drank ten of them, English would be my second language. That is apart from the damage such drinking was doing to the young girl.
