Specific Details Irish Licence for Selling Safe PSA 94:2024

Intended results We are of the opinion that this License is likely a market barrier. If this sets a precedent, the European market for safes could become fragmented into 27 local markets with their own Licences. We are of the opinion that the licence does not give a benefit regarding "selling of safes"
