Vol. 552 No. 1

Written Answers. - Theatre Licence.

Question:

261 Dr. Upton asked the Minister for Finance if he will review the terms of a licence (details supplied), in view of the fact that this premises is now used as a nightclub. [12042/02]

I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that a theatre licence under Section 7 of the Excise Act, 1835, was granted to the premises referred to and that this current licence was issued on 19 December 2001. The Revenue Commissioners are the licence-issuing authority, but the day-to- day monitoring of these licences is the responsibility of the Garda Síochána.

I have been informed by Revenue that the licence in respect of the premises in question will be reviewed by it in conjunction with the Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform in light of the information provided by the Deputy.
