abstract: The Commission on Liquor Licensing was established by the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform in November 2000 to review the Liquor Licensing system in Ireland. The Commission published an Interim Report with a set of recommendations1, one of which was the establishment of a task force.

The Department of Health and Children agreed to establish a Strategic Task Force on Alcohol.
