Auckland Local Alcohol Policy w/ Lawyer and Secretary of Communities Against Alcohol Harm (CAAH), Dr Grant Hewison: 19 August, 2024

The Auckland Council is set to decide when the Auckland Local Alcohol Policy will be put in place for the city.

The policy details stricter measures in Tāmaki Makaurau, which means bottle shops won’t be able to sell liquor after 9pm, and would put a two-year freeze on new liquor licences in high priority areas.

Joel spoke to Lawyer and Secretary of Communities Against Alcohol Harm, Dr Grant Hewison, about the policy, and what this will mean for Aucklanders.
