An application for an ‘occasional licence’ to sell alcohol at a rave in rural Kilkenny has been withdrawn from before the local district court.
Solicitor Chris Hogan informed Judge Geraldine Carthy that the application would not be proceeding, at Monday’s district court.
Last week the application had been raised and Inspector Paul Donohoe objected, on several grounds, including policing concerns and the concerns of local residents.
Judge Carthy had adjourned the matter to Monday to give her decision. Before she could do this she was informed the matter was not proceeding.
She marked the matter ‘formally withdrawn.’
The application had been for an ‘occasional licence’ for the sale of alcohol at a venue in Castleinch on St Stephen’s Day and was made on behalf of publican Seán Delaney, Gornamon, Kells, of the Motte and Bailey public house. It requested the occasional licence for the ‘Reboot Music Event’ at Castleinch, the site of a well known car boot sale.
The Kilkenny People believe the event has been cancelled.
