Rural Development: Statements
1:00 pm
Alan Kelly (Labour)
I was struck by the Minister's comments on the social effects of nightclubs in attracting young people away from rural areas into towns. I advocate the theming of pubs, including restaurant add-ons, which should be facilitated. Such theming would avoid forcing people into towns for social activities. The Minister should examine that matter. He might also look at health and safety legislation concerning the preparation of food.
