Summer inspections ramping up
With the warmer weather and festive season upon us, Liquor Licensing inspectors will again be actively working with licensed premises to help them operate responsibly during a time that traditionally puts increased pressure on venues.
The summer campaign will be a mix of education and proactive inspections to support industry in complying with statutory obligations.
Key focus areas will include major events, particularly those deemed high risk, and seasonal activities and events that have the potential for a greater impact on the local community.
The aim is to amplify harm minimisation through professionally managed premises and responsible service of alcohol using measures such as effective management oversight, competently trained staff, free drinking water and compliance with conditions such as additional security and noise reduction.
