Street drinking and begging could be banned under new plans to tackle anti social behaviour in Tipp town.
Councillor Annemarie Ryan brought a motion forward at this week’s Municipal District meeting,
calling for a review of the bye-laws and adoption of a zero tolerance policy.
She said that while they are trying to revive the town centre, unregulated street drinking is having a detrimental effect on their efforts.

The issue will be raised at a meeting with the Gardaí in October
Cllr Ryan said that the bye-laws in Tipp Town are outdated.
She believes that Gardaí should have the power to confiscate what they believe to be alcohol in a public place, just as they do in Clonmel and she said that the bye-laws in Tipp Town are outdated.
