"Following some rules doesn't mean you can ignore other rules in the Act"

If you do something under sections 14 to 22 of the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012, it does not mean you can break other rules in the Act. You cannot use these sections to do something that is forbidden by another part of the Act. You must still follow all the other rules in the Act, even if you are doing something allowed by sections 14 to 22.
