District Court president Judge Paul Kelly imposed a four-month sentence, suspended for two years, on the condition that the tradesman not perform any gas installations unless he is registered.

He also handed the plumber a €500 fine and ordered Tsiogas of Beechfield Meadows, Clonee, Dublin 15, to pay €750 in prosecution costs.
