Government approved outdoor drinking legislation.
Reachtaíocht maidir le ól taobh amuigh ceadaithe ag an Rialtas.
A cabinet meeting was held a long time ago today to pass legislation that will give you legal clarity on rules for drinking outdoors.
Reachtáileadh cruinniú comhaireachta ó chian inniu chun reachtaíocht a cheadú a thabharfaidh soiléireacht ó thaobh dlí dho do rialacha a bhaineann le bheith ag ól taobh amuigh faoin aer.
The legislation will allow alcohol to be sold and consumed in designated areas outside of pubs and restaurants.
Faoin reachtaíocht tabharfar cead alcól a dhíol agus a ól in áiteanna ainmnithe taobh amuigh de thithe tábhairne agus bialanna.
Last week, Garda Commissioner Drew Harris issued a guide to Gardaí to use their discretion in relation to outdoor drinking.
An tseachtain seo caite, d’éisigh Coimisinéir na nGardaí Drew Harris treoir do Ghardaí chun a ndiscréid a usáid maidir le daoine ag ól taobh amuigh faoin aer.
This guide was issued following concerns expressed in Galway when Gardaí in Galway were skeptical about the legality of an outdoor drinking service, a story first revealed by local newspaper An Curadh Connachtach.
Éisíodh an treoir sin i ndiaidh gur léiríodh imní sa Ghaillimh nuair a bhí amhras ar Ghardaí sa Ghaillimh maidir le cé chomh dleathach is a bhí seirbhís maidir le bheith ag ól taobh amuigh, scéal a nocht an nuachtán áitiúil An Curadh Connachtach ar dtús.
Gardaí in Galway stated that outdoor drinking was only permitted in Galway City if the premises where people were drinking outside had obtained a special license in court or had been permitted by bye-laws. for people to drink outside.
Dúirt Gardaí sa Ghaillimh nach raibh cead a bheith ag ól taobh amuigh i gCathair na Gaillimhe ach amháin dá mba rud é go raibh ceadúnas speisialta faighte sa chúirt ag an áitreabh ina raibh daoine ag ól taobh amuigh de nó go raibh cead tugtha faoi fho-dhlithe do dhaoine a bheith ag ól taobh amuigh.
The legislation is due to be laid before the Dáil this week and will expire on November 30th unless it is renewed by the Oireachtas for a further 6 months.
Tá an reachtaíocht le cur os comhair na Dála an tseachtain seo agus tiocfaidh deireadh léi ar an 30ú Samhain ach amháin sa chás is go ndéanann an tOireachtas í a athnuachan ar feadh 6 mhí eile.
