Section 64 “Show Cause” in relation to alcohol-related harm in the Kalgoorlie/Boulder area
The WA Police have written to the Director of Liquor Licensing and have prepared a report regarding the evidence and extent of alcohol-related harm being experienced by people in the communities of Kalgoorlie, Boulder, Coolgardie and Kambalda.
Following consideration of that correspondence and report, the Director of Liquor Licensing has determined that he is satisfied that the level of alcohol related harm occurring in those communities is such that it would be in the public interest to impose restrictive conditions on relevant licences.
