Women taking legal action against Kildare pub for allegedly refusing to serve them

Two women are taking legal action against a Co Kildare pub for allegedly refusing to allow them to buy drinks.

Lawyers acting for the women are due to make separate applications at Naas District Court on Wednesday.

The applications are being made under Section 19 of the Intoxicating Liquor Act 2003 which covers the area of discrimination.

The pub hasn't been named in court documents but it is expected to fully defend the allegations.
