GARDAI are considering the launch of a sting operation to tackle the illegal delivery and sale of alcohol in North Dublin.
Senior officers are concerned about outlets delivering alcohol to homes and public locations before it is paid for.
The practice is illegal, and was brought up at a recent meeting of the Dublin North West joint policing committee.
Gardai have said outlets are entitled to deliver alcohol to homes once payment has been made "at source".
However, there has been a growing number of complaints about outlets accepting cash on delivery.
