Research
Massey University, through Social and Health Outcomes Research and Evaluation Unit (SHORE), undertook a study relating to the monitoring and
impact of alcohol bans and opening hours.
Results indicate that the major issues around opening hours relate to the levels of supervision and management within premises.
A national monitoring and enforcement model has been introduced through the Police Alcohol Action Plan called the Graduated Response Model
(GRM). The GRM is designed to identify and deal with problem premises by introducing better practices around host responsibility and opening hours.
Auckland City is working with police on this project for monitoring and enforcement purposes.
In relation to alcohol bans, the research indicated that they are most successful when enforced by police on very regular intervals. It was also
recommended that bans should be one of a number of strategies rather than a standalone tool in reducing alcohol related behaviour.
