New Mandatory Licensing Conditions April 2010

New Mandatory Licensing Conditions April 2010
The Home Secretary has annouced five conditions for the new mandatory licensing code, seemingly ending speculation of it being scrapped - though the code still requires parliamentary approval.
As of the 6th April 2010, the first 3 proposed conditions are planned to come into effect:
  • banning irresponsible promotions, such as 'all you can drink for £10' or 'women drink free' deals, that encourage people to drink quickly or irresponsibly
  • banning 'dentist's chairs' where drink is poured directly into the mouths of customers, making it impossible for them to control the amount they are drinking
  • ensuring free tap water is available for customers, allowing people to space out their drinks
Premises will have further time to prepare for the remaining 2 conditions due to come in on the 1st October 2010:
  • ensuring all those who sell alcohol have an age-verification policy in place, requiring them to check the ID of anyone who looks under-18
  • ensuring small measures of beers, wine and spirits are made available to customers
