There's nothing in any regulations to prevent it here, its basically just
indoor via ferrata.  I guess what may cause a problem is getting insurance
(with economically feasible premiums).  

It would mean you'd have to require the customers either to be 'competent'
or keep them under close supervision though.  This is only the same as for
the climbing, but unlike the climbing experienced people aren't the target
market.
