I propose to take Questions Nos. 103 and 111 together.

My Department does not issue licences for the type of event referred to in the Questions. The organisers should contact the local authority concerned in relation to any necessary temporary road closures, the local Superintendent of An Garda Síochána, the local office of the Health Service Executive and any other organisations that these bodies advise should be contacted in order to ensure that the proposed event is run in compliance with all relevant statutory requirements.
