What is the main difference between an on-licence and an off-licence in New Zealand?
Answer: On-licence allows consumption on the premises; off-licence allows sale for consumption elsewhere
An on-licence permits the sale and supply of alcohol for consumption on the licensed premises (e.g., restaurants, bars, hotels). An off-licence permits the sale of alcohol for consumption off the premises (e.g., bottle stores, supermarkets).
What are the specific conditions that typically attach to a club licence in NZ?
Answer: Alcohol can only be supplied to authorised members, their guests, and at club events — not sold to the general public
A club licence authorises the supply of alcohol to club members and their guests, and at events held by the club. It cannot be used to sell alcohol to the general public. Members must be bona fide members of the club.
What conditions might a District Licensing Committee (DLC) place on a licence in NZ?
Answer: Trading hours, one-way door restrictions, noise limits, requirement for food service, and designation of areas
A DLC can impose a wide range of conditions including trading hours, one-way door restrictions, noise limits, designation of areas (supervised/restricted), food service requirements, security provisions, and any other conditions it considers appropriate.
What is a 'supervised area' designation on NZ licensed premises?
Answer: An area where minors may enter only if accompanied by a parent or legal guardian
A supervised area is a designated area of licensed premises where minors (under 18) may be present but only if accompanied by their parent or legal guardian. Unaccompanied minors are not permitted in supervised areas.
What is a 'restricted area' on NZ licensed premises?
Answer: An area where no person under 18 may enter at any time, regardless of who accompanies them
A restricted area is a designated part of licensed premises where no person under 18 may be present at any time, even if accompanied by a parent or guardian. This is a stricter designation than a supervised area.
Under NZ law, what is an 'undesignated area' on licensed premises?
Answer: An area with no age restriction — anyone may be present regardless of age
An undesignated area has no specific restriction regarding the presence of minors — people of any age may be present. This is common in family-friendly restaurants where alcohol is served alongside meals.
