Call for changes on sale of alcohol

ALCOHOL sold in off-licences should be packaged in containers bearing the name of the outlet, gardaí said yesterday.

The call was made as part of a number of policies targeting alcohol abuse and related crime adopted by the Association of Garda Sergeants and Inspectors (AGSI) at the closing day of their annual conference.

The motion was put down by gardaí attached to Dublin south central, the division where a young man was viciously assaulted last Sunday.
