.... is a pro-active partnership between responsible local licensed premises, Camden Council, NSW Police and Liquor and Gaming.
Together we are working to create safer venues and neighbourhoods where our patrons can enjoy themselves without the fear of alcohol related harm.
We work proactively with the aim to reduce alcohol related issues to avoid the need to resort to venue regulations, enforcement action or court sanctions after problems have occurred.
The Accord work aims to minimise harm associated with inappropriate alcohol consumption, improve safety and amenities in local venues and reduce alcohol related violence and anti-social behaviour.
The Accord is based on harm minimisation and the Responsible Service of Alcohol principles contained within the liquor laws. Whilst the Liquor Accord places emphasis on the roles and responsibilities of local licensees, it is supported by the complimentary actions of our stakeholders, including NSW Police.
It also focuses on patrons and their responsibilities regarding the consumption of alcohol and in improving public safety.
All members are dedicated to improving the safety and environment in the Camden local government area to the benefit of our community.
