Members spoke this morning on that very topic during the debate on the European Convention on Human Rights, and freedom was referred to as a human right. If one cannot go out and do whatever one wants on a given night, it is a poor reflection on us as a society and as a nation. There is now much greater awareness of this issue. A report on public order offences, commissioned by the National Crime Council and mentioned by the Minister when last he was in the House, noted that the number of public order offences proceeded against had gone up by 160% between 1996 and 2001. The most frequently invoked section was drunkenness in public areas and threatening and abusive behaviour. That in itself indicates there is a strong link between public disorder and drinking.
