Small Bars Maximum Numbers Lifted

LGS have been working tirelessly since the introduction of the small bar licence category in 2009 to overcome the policy position adopted by OLGR that these premises should be limited to a maximum of 60 patrons at any one time. This week finally saw the publication of Guideline 52 (http://www.olgr.qld.gov.au/resources/liquorDocs/guideline52.shtml ) which lifts the total occupancy restriction from 60 to a more viable 100 patrons, to the relief of many of our small bar clients.

We acknowledge the courage and patience of James Maxwell at The Hideaway, Fortitude Valley for his willingness to partner with us in the QCAT test case, which provided the catalyst for final negotiations with OLGR and ministerial officers.
