Aaron Humes: The government says you can “drink rum on Christmas morning”. Under standard operating rules under the Liquor Licensing Act for Intoxication, you can drink any liquor anytime this weekend.
Overruling the decision of the Police Department and Chief of Police Chester Williams, the Press Office statement read, “The Cabinet is requesting that all licensed establishments remain open until the following business hours on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. I have decided to allow it,” he said. Midnight he is 12 o’clock. Nightclub, 2am. Shop and beer license, 9pm. Publican Special, midnight. Publican General, 10pm. Convenience store, midnight. Hotel, midnight. Members Club, 3:00 am.And malt and cider, 11pm
It further adds, “In the coming weeks, the Attorney General will prepare a proposed amendment to the Intoxicating Liquor Licensing Act to reflect the above decisions.”
On Thursday, the commissioner told reporters that all he intended was to “enforce the law” as reflected in the law, urging hotels and restaurants to serve their guests and offer full meals. He defended his decision by citing examples limited to providing does not actually comply with laws that only prohibit the operation of
The commissioner also reiterated that the less alcohol served, the less crime and traffic accidents occurred.Police can’t celebrate [their] Christmas family, enjoy the privileges you have. Many of the police wish they had the chance to stay home with their families but are unable to do so. You have it – stay home and enjoy your family. If you’re sober or want to drink, buy some liquor on the 24th, take it home, and do it on Christmas Day. [you can] Drink all day at home. Nothing to worry about. ”
Before the Cabinet’s intervention, residents of Ambergris Caye in particular, according to San Pedro San, were the island’s promoters and the thousands of people who profited from working for them. One promoter said he had to cancel the event he was promoting. This incurs the cost of paying DJs, security personnel and possibly international artists who book under contract. Islanders also complain that decisions were not made after proper consultation, especially in tourist destinations such as Ambergris, Caye Caulker, Hopkins, Placencia and Cayo.
I don’t think today’s walkback from the nation’s highest authority will easily relieve those who have already lost, but Placencia Beach Club co-owner Shane Kenny sees it as a win anyway. Companies in Belize, especially those in tourist destinations. This release from the Cabinet shows that the government will no longer cater to personal and religious preferences. Rather, it acts on the basis of ‘collective interest’ by allowing companies to operate within their legal rights. I applaud Prime Minister Briceño and his Cabinet for their actions today and look forward to the amendments promised to undoubtedly remove restrictions not only on Christmas but also on Good Friday. ”
