Intoxicating Liquor Bill 2003 [ Seanad Bill amended by the Dáil ] : Report and Final Stages.

 

I hope this explicit provision will have the effect of allaying the fears expressed on this subject. I should add that the existing provisions of section 35 of the Intoxicating Liquor Act 1988, which prohibit persons under the age of 18 years from bars where an exemption order is in force will remain unchanged. It means that after ordinary closing time, there is no question of a private function justifying the presence of young people in a bar.
