Watchdog to prosecute publicans without price lists

PUBLICANS have been warned that they face prosecution for failing to display their prices after the Director of Consumer Affairs expressed disappointment that some are still not complying with the law.

Six publicans have been prosecuted already this year and more court cases are pending, Director Carmel Foley said.

But the penalties are low as publicans who have been prosecuted have all received fines or less than €600.
