Nightclub overcrowding warning
There is no enforcement of the law limiting the numbers in nightclubs and owners are escaping scrutiny on overcrowding, he said. "I believe another Stardust disaster could happen, because there is no control over the numbers going into night clubs. The owners must be forced to implement the law by issuing tickets so that inspectors can tell exactly how many are inside."
The Liquor Licensing Commission, which issued its final report on the drinks industry just over a year ago, did not take on board any of Mr Holmes's recommendations on nightclubs because he said the trade were against it.
