SHARE THIS ARTICLE

Alcohol harm is exacerbated by the online sale and delivery of alcohol, which has vastly increased availability and accessibility.

FARE lodged a submission to the Queensland Government on the proposed amendments to the Liquor Act 1992 and the Wine Industry Act 1992. This suite of amendments makes up the Liquor and Other Legislation Amendment Act 2024.

Within our submission, we made several recommendations on the online sale and delivery of alcohol, including introducing a 2-hour safety pause, and the ensuring consistent regulations across same day and different day deliveries.

Read the full submission below.

FARE supports policy reforms that contribute to a reduction in alcohol-related harms in Australia. Our policy work is informed by the evidence of what is most effective in reducing alcohol-related harms. We support the progression of population-based health measures, which take into consideration the far reaching and complex impacts of alcohol-related harms.
