Consultation launched on modernising alcohol laws

Thu, 17 Dec 2020

A consultion on modernising the Island's alcohol licensing laws has been launched.

The Manx Government say the focus of the survey is around enabling economic growth through a more streamlined licensing procedure which is responsive to new ideas.

Minister for Justice and Home Affairs Graham Cregeen, MHK said: ‘I encourage everyone with views on the future of licensing on the Island to take this opportunity to get involved and play an important part in the forthcoming changes.

‘The past year’s challenges have shown us how fortunate we are to live here - and being able to safely and sensibly enjoy a vibrant social scene with music events, dining out and trips to the pub is a big part of this.

Those wanting to take part can get involved by visiting the online government consultation hub before the deadline on Monday, January 18, 2021.
