Closed petition Not to allow children under 16 years of age in to licenced bars or pubs after 9pm.

Closed on 2 December 2012

I want the government to ban anyone under the age of 16 from being in a licensed pub or bar after 9pm, regardless of whether they are accompanied by an adult or not.
This is due to recently being witness to a couple having their 3 year old and 7 year old in a public house after closing time, on a school night, and the parents felt it was just the done thing. As far as they, and the law were concerned, the children weren't at the bar so it was fine.
It is not.
