Local authorities are to get the power to impose
blanket bans on the sale of alcohol after 3am in entire
streets or city centres affected by alcohol-related anti-
social behaviour and disorder.
The move was confirmed today by Licensing Minister Gerry Sutcliffe, as he announced that the new powers would be brought in through the Crime and Security Bill, currently before Parliament. Announced by the Prime Minister in September 2009, the new rules would mean that, where disorder or public nuisance cannot be attributed to particular individual premises, local authorities would be able to limit late opening across an entire area. |
