My point is that this issue has been brought to my attention and may not have received the requisite attention yesterday. Perhaps it will receive more today. The Leas-Chathaoirleach who comes from a rural area in County Mayo realises the effect on pubs. Publicans control their business, do not permit binge drinking on their premises and control young drinkers. This promotion constituted a major encouragement to young drinkers and non-Irish nationals, in particular, who could have availed of this offer of 12 free cans of Budweiser or Guinness on purchasing 12 cans.
