Intoxicating Liquor Bill 2003: Committee Stage.
Everybody talks about enforcement and asks where are the 2,000 gardaĆ required to enforce this? The subsection is trying to stop 17 year olds being in the places in question. If publicans and hoteliers use their creative genius, to the extent which I believe they have it, they would easily avoid anti-family or grotesque results by rearranging their businesses in an orderly manner. There are plenty of barristers who would give them opinions on these subjects if there was any difficulty.
