Vol. 114 No. 9

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Legality of Carnival Games.

asked the Minister for Justice whether he has considered and, if so, with what result, the question of introducing proposals for legislation to amend the existing statutes which make illegal certain games usually carried on at carnivals, civic weeks and other entertainments sponsored by responsible persons throughout the country.

I would refer the Deputy to my reply to a question on 24th February, when I stated that I did not intend to introduce proposals for legislation to amend the gaming laws.

As a result of representations I am having the matter re-examined, but I cannot promise that legislation will be introduced.
