Senator to write to govt about Centra incident

Fianna Fáil Senator Averil Power is taking further action after four Centra stores were ordered to pull a promotion offering cheap alcohol as part of a special deal for children’s allowance day.

Ms Power, who had called on the Centra head office to pull the promotion, plans to write to the Office of the Director of Consumer Affairs, the Advertising Standards Authority of Ireland, retail groups and the ministers for health and social protection.
