The Dáil bar has gone to Galway and Oireachtas authorities are not pursuing it
A Galway publican opened The Dáil Bar in Cross Street in the city last November and despite the association of the name with Leinster House, authorities there have decided not to take any legal action.
A Leinster House commission sought legal advice over the issue and a spokesperson said they have now concluded that no action will be taken, as the title ‘The Dáil Bar’ is not registered, and the ‘Dáil bar’ in Leinster House technically does not exist, as it actually refers to two bars in the building.
