Calls have been made for the politicians’ Dail bar to be “shut down” as Leinster House has no licence to serve alcohol.
Socialist TD Paul Murphy told the Irish Mirror that the “lawmakers” in the chamber should not become “lawbreakers” when they go drinking in their unlicensed “shebeen”.
The call to shut down the bar comes ahead of major new licensing legislation coming to Cabinet in the coming weeks from Justice Minister Helen McEntee.
