Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012

Sale and supply of alcohol generally - Local alcohol policies

80: Territorial authority must give public notice of finalised policy

You could also call this:

"Council must tell the public about its new alcohol rules"

If you want to adopt a local alcohol policy, you must tell the public about it. You do this after you have finished making the policy and talking to people about it under section 79. You have to follow the rules made under the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act when you give public notice.

You must give public notice in the way the rules say. The rules might say you have to publish the whole policy. This means you could have to make the entire policy available to the public.

When you give public notice, you are telling everyone about the policy you have made. You have to do this so people know what the policy says. The rules will help you understand how to give public notice correctly.
