Changes made to alcohol and event licences

Tue, 13 Dec 2022

Changes to the Liquor Licensing and Public Entertainment Regulations 2022 came into force this week, updating the processes for alcohol and public entertainments licences.

The changes came into operation on Monday, with existing licences still valid during the grace period that runs until the end of June 2023. This period allows licensees to transition to a licence issued under the new framework.

The biggest change with the new regulations is a move away from a three year alcohol licence renewal process (the “Triennials”) to an annual rolling licence.

This means businesses will no longer need to submit renewal paperwork every three years. Instead, if licensees have operated within their conditions and maintained high standards, they will only need to confirm there have been no changes or legal issues with their licence within the year and pay an annual fee.
