The liquor regulatory body says that in the entire province it has only 25 inspectors who inspect licensed premises and work on ensuring the compliance with liquor regulations by outlets.
“We have about 7 000 liquor outlets in the province. There are those that are trading illegally, although I can’t give you the exact number, but I can tell you that the estimate is that they are far more than the number of legal traders and that is really the biggest problem that we have in the province,” confirmed Mbanjwa.
“The reality is that quite a number of those outlets which are in close proximity to schools were issued under the old Act of 1989,” adds the CEO of the Authority.In counteracting this, the Liquor Authority tried to relocate the liquor shops operating since the previous Act, but were taken to court by the owners of those establishments and often the judgments were handed out against them as the courts held that the current Act could not apply retroactively.
KwaZulu-Natal police spokesperson Jay Naicker says police are working to clamp down on illegal liquor outlets. Naicker says 453 illegal liquor outlets were closed down in the month of July, and 695 legally operating liquor outlets were issued fines for not complying with the Liquor Act.
