Gillespie, Alistair A (2008) Test purchasing of alcohol. Irish Criminal Law Journal, 18, (4), p. 98.
Section 14 of the Intoxicating Liquor Act 2008 inserts a provision into the Intoxicating Liquor Act 1988 which will permit An Garda Siochana to employ juveniles, aged 15 to 18 to act as test purchaser on licensed premises.
