It is not my intention to put pressure on licensees. If a law is being abused in some way, we should ensure that we stitch it down in such a way that such abuse cannot happen. However, it is not good enough or acceptable for someone to state that a publican paid €2,000 because he or she could not put his or her case. That cannot happen under the current legislation, as I understand it. Why did the publicans not put their case? They could have gone to an appeals tribunal, which would have been set up locally. The Minister should reconsider this issue and include a step before the District Court. It can be brought back to the District Court, if necessary.
