How will these provisions be enforced, particularly late at night? I know of stops along the Shannon used by pleasure craft with public houses nearby. It is quite common for people to get off the boat, go to the pub or restaurant and come back again, which could happen quite late at night. Without having officers at every stop along the way, how can we ensure such situations do not get out of control? People often take a boat on the Shannon for pleasure purposes including birthday parties etc. During the summer in particular, it is quite common that a reasonable amount of alcohol might be consumed although not, I hope, by the person steering the craft. How do we ensure the peace and quiet and good behaviour we all want?
