They will do this by implementing a harm-minimisation program that conforms to the requirements of the NSW Liquor Act 2007 and Liquor Regulations 2008.

The Reserve Bank will, to the extent reasonably practicable, under the program:

and return it to them upon departure at the end of their booking

Prohibit alcohol sold at the Centre from being taken offsite.

Ensure safe transport options are available for patrons.

Ensure consumption of alcohol at the Centre does not detract from the amenity of the local
