	Dáil Éireann - Volume 553 - 19 June, 2002 - Criminal Justice (Public Order) Bill, 2002: Second Stage.
		Section 8 deals with the breach of closure orders and provides that a person who permits his or her premises to be open in breach of a closure order will incur a fine of €3,000 or imprisonment for a term not exceeding six months, or both.
		The message should be that public order offences will no longer be shrugged off and will be treated seriously and that young people, particularly those in their late teens and early twenties, need to take personal responsibility for their actions and the consequences of their actions.
		The fact that many cases involving a public order offence take up to nine months to come before the courts is not acceptable to the victims and is unfair on the community which has suffered the nuisance or damage, or in many cases both.

	Statewatch News online: Public order policing in Europe
		Most states already have extensive statutory powers to deal with 'live' public order situations (crowd control, special powers of arrest and detention etc.) but are now looking to step-up international cooperation and introduce measures aimed at preventing protesters from different EU states coming together.
		In 1997, the Schengen countries produced a public order manual almost identical to the EU Joint Action with the additional possibility of coordinated operations and on-site command centres; this has now been incorporated into the EU framework.
		The conference is titled "maintaining public order: a democratic approach", and the Dutch police intend to invite one member of the 'anti-globalization' movement to put their case, before the experts, who will be meeting behind closed doors, retire to consider the exchange of intelligence and a coordinated approach to policing the protests.
