AUSTRALIAN CAPITAL TERRITORY

LIQUOR REGULATIONS (AMENDMENT) 1987

ISSUED BY THE AUTHORITY OF THE MINISTER OF STATE FOR TERRITORIES

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

No. 8 of 1987

The Liquor Ordinance 1975 (the “Principal Ordinance”) regulates the sale of liquor in the Territory.

The Liquor Regulations (the “Principal Regulations”) set out the forms required to be submitted for various transactions under the Principal Ordinance.

The Liquor Regulations (Amendment) 1987 brings the Principal Regulations into line with consequential changes to the Principal ordinance following the passing of the Australian Capital Territory Gaming and Liquor Authority Ordinance 1987.  The changes to the Principal Ordinance are primarily concerned with the substitution of references to the “Authority” for references to the “Board”.

This amendment omits the words “the Liquor Licensing Board” and substitutes “the Authority” in form 7 of the Schedule to the Principal Regulations.
