Liquor Traders - Cape Town City’s Liquor Enforcement Unit partnered with the Western Cape Liquor Board and Provincial Office of the South African Police Services to conduct integrated operations in Camps Bay, Sea Point, the Waterfront, the Cape Town CBD, and Bellville on the weekend of 12 December 2011.
The Unit focused on contravention of the Business Act as well as the City’s Community Fire Safety By-Law and Streets, Public Places and Prevention of Noise Nuisances By-law.
Officers inspected 43 night clubs and issued 48 fines to the value of R52 000,00. Three premises were closed under the Liquor Act for non-compliance with regulations.
Combined operations such as this one will be conducted on a regular basis to ensure that the patrons visiting these premises are kept safe. In addition, owners of premises selling liquor are constantly made aware of the Liquor Unit’s zero tolerance approach to non-compliance with City regulations.
