Pubs launch zero tolerance policy

CAUSE trouble in one pub and you’re barred from them all.

That’s the tough message from publicans in an East Cork town who will launch a coordinated crackdown on trouble-makers, underage drinking, drunkenness and anti-social behaviour.

Individuals with convictions for drugs offences will also be barred, chairman of Youghal Vintners’ and Hoteliers’ Association, Colin Doyle, said.
