Intoxicating Liquor Bill 2003: Committee Stage.
10:30 am
Michael McDowell (Dublin South East, Progressive Democrats)
This Bill is intended to operate until I introduce the major consolidating Act in 2004. If between now and then I think the law needs to be changed, I will do so. The phrase "quarrelsome", as it appears in the Bill, is in the existing law. It was not thought up one afternoon and written on the back of a beer mat in the Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform in recent times.
