 Extending opening areas will decrease public order offences and ensure the ends of nights outrun more smoothly. Give us the night, a representative for DJs and night club owners are calling for licensing areas and night clubs to be changed from the current closing time of 3am. Night clubs must apply for a special exemption order to stay open later than standard opening areas at a cost of €410 per night. Own lines, popular DJ and member of Give us the night shared his thoughts on the issue. Current laws have to and by that stage in the night people are definitely tanked up so putting them out onto the street at that time definitely isn't a good idea but especially in Dublin like and the places that we'd be campaigning to keep open like people are there to hear the music not to drink and I feel like that's a huge thing that we have issued because the like the Guardian and the law basically their stance is that all we want to do is drink and maybe abuse substances and stuff like that which is not the case like we just want longer hours to enjoy music but if you look at any other European city in particular like the licensing laws are completely different clubs stay open till the early hours of the morning 6-7 o'clock especially places like Berlin and stuff like that and like aside from myself as a DJ getting more hours in the night club if it was to open later and you also need to look at how like longer opening hours would affect like tourism and stuff like that it would attract more people in which would mean more kind of people from foreign countries would see the likes of myself playing new venues and stuff like that so yeah absolutely I definitely think it leads to more money and exposure. I think it would allow for the night club industry to like develop and to expand and stuff like that and a more like kind of growth like kind of economic growth within that industry. There is anti-social behaviour because people are still kind of they have energy because of that whereas if they're in the night club for longer they're going to use their energy in there and then it won't be taken to the streets. Yeah now exactly I think as well like especially in places like all the way where everything on night club is like the finish is at the exact same time and everyone comes down to the streets that's and gets really dodgy but yeah now there is an awful lot of energy and build up kind of aggression. Especially because you have different groups like every night club might cater towards a certain niche so each niche is bringing their own thing to the streets and that's where the intention might arise from. A past student myself one a year ago you clearly see anti-social behaviour after nights out and we've taken a shout out for for example when it's finished on the DCU campus it's usually quite quiet because there's security and patrol but once you leave the DCU area you're kind of going to shun on that you do often see might be severe anti-social behaviour but you do loud noises and noise complaints and yeah it's very evident that in some places after hours that they're after closing hours there's definitely anti-social behaviour kind of depends where you go.
