Complaints Regarding Premises with Liquor Licences
DESCRIPTION: |
If a licensed trader causes a nuisance this may be in breach of the Liquor Act or the conditions of the licence. A complaint must be laid with the police, who will take steps against the trader. Where a community organisation, for example a community policing forum or rate payer's association, is active in the community, it must be informed. If the problem persists, the police are required to send a report to the Liquor Board. The Liquor Board may hold a hearing and place conditions on the licence or withdraw or suspend the licence, if necessary. |
INSTRUCTIONS: |
To lodge a complaint against licensed premises, you need to give a detailed sworn affidavit to the police. |
