Overview
Residents were invited to have their say on the Liquor Legislation review, which will consider how to improve the NWT’s liquor laws related to:
- possession
- consumption
- sale and purchase
- manufacture
- importation
- distribution of liquor in the NWT
The review will not look for solutions to liquor-related issues (e.g. addictions treatment and impaired driving) over which NWT liquor legislation does not have authority. Such items are governed by other legislation, or they intentionally rest outside legislation.
