Northern Cape Liquor Board's choice to lift the restriction on alcohol sales 'ill-considered'

The Northern Cape Liquor Board ’s decision to lift restrictions on Sunday alcohol sales and extend nightclub opening hours has been met with mixed reactions. The province remained one of the last to ban the sale of alcohol on Sundays.Fatima Malo, chairperson of the Moral Regeneration Movement in the Northern Cape, says the authorities should have organised public hearings before implementing what she calls an ill-considered decision.The move has garnered mixed reactions.

Some residents supported the association’s sentiments. “It’s cheaper at the bottle store, tavern is expensive. You buy a 750ml for R21 and at the bottle store it’s R19.” “We do not have a problem of extension of hours of trading because where we stay it’s safe.” Northern Cape Moral Regeneration Movement Chairperson, Fatima Malo says authorities should have organised public hearings before the implementation of what they call an ill-considered decision.
