(a) - (j) The conditions imposed on the extended trading permits granted to hotels and taverns and the variation to the conditions of the special facility licences operating as late night venues in Northbridge, were imposed as a result of representations made by the Executive Director, Public Health and the Commissioner of Police.
For these conditions to be revisited or reviewed, there would need to be further representations to the Director of Liquor Licensing by the Executive Director Public Health, or the Police, or the licensees themselves.
Information on harm statistics relating to anti-social behaviour presented as part of these representations and this information is collected by the agencies themselves. As such this question should be directed to the responsible ministers.
Similarly, questions about tourism and illicit drugs should be directed to the responsible minister.
The Director of Liquor Licensing and staff of the Department of Racing, Gaming and Liquor meet with the Australian Hotels Association, the Big N Group of Northbridge, WA Nightclub Association and other industry stakeholders on the strategies for addressing alcohol-related harm.
