Taoiseach vows to review laws on ticket-touting

The Taoiseach, Bertie Ahern, has vowed to review laws relating to ticket-touting in Ireland in an effort to prevent sports fans and concert-goers from being ripped off.

Mr Ahern was responding to Dáil questions from Fine Gael leader Enda Kenny about the fact that some tickets - such as those for the upcoming U2 gigs in Croke Park - were being sold for 10 times their face value on the black market.
