Monetary penalty set aside as dice games were found not to encourage immoderate consumption of alcohol.
The Registrar of Alcohol, Gaming and Racing issued an Order of Monetary Penalty of $3,000 against the appellant, alleging it permitted drinking games that encouraged immoderate consumption of liquor and failed to maintain control over the premises.
The allegations stemmed from patrons playing dice games.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal found that the dice games were culturally significant and not intended to promote drinking, and there was no evidence of intoxication or a policy encouraging immoderate consumption.
The Tribunal directed the Registrar not to carry out the monetary penalty.
