Don't miss important news!
As most states and territories battle against increasingly restrictions or lockdowns, there is a constant barrage of changes that the hospitality industry and it’s staff face. It is hard to keep up with the changes and to know what you must do, one of the best ways to keep up to date with hospitality industry news is to subscribe to your own state or territory Liquor and Gaming regulation e-newsletter. They are sent out regularly to their subscribers.
If you want to read the latest news from some of the government websites, you can do so by visiting:
QLD – Office of Liquor and Gaming Regulations – Inside Liquor and Gaming

VIC – Victorian Commission for Gambling and Liquor Regulations – VCGLR News
TAS – Department of Treasury and Finance – Liquor and Gaming News
If your state or territory is not listed, you can still keep up to date with their news by visiting their specific government website.
You may also keep up to date by following industry associations in your own state or territory or federally (some examples provided below):

So you won’t miss out on important changes, new laws, tips, frequently asked questions, COVID-19 changes or restrictions, industry events, signage, check lists, fact sheets, new fines and penalties, alerts, government released campaigns and ideas to reduce harm minimisation plus so much more.
