Dannevirke’s liquor ban, now into its third summer has been welcomed by the town’s newly arrived senior sergeant of police.
“Liquor bans are a great tool. They work wherever they are introduced”, Senior Sergeant Revill-Johnson formerly from South Auckland, said.
It was pleasing that no one had been arrested for abusing the ban in the three weeks since he had arrived, he said.
A liquor ban will continue at Akitio beach starting from 12 noon on Christmas Eve and continuing to January 3.
The council asks that beach visitors and residents observe the by-law which prohibits people from carrying alcohol in a public place.
Signs will be in place to enforce the by-law.
