“…While there has been much public debate about the potential for minimum unit pricing of alcohol to address affordability in the UK [16,17], there has also been renewed interest in local approaches to the provision of premises licences for the sale of alcohol as a means to control availability [18,19,20,21]. There is consistent evidence suggesting an association between increased availability of alcohol, including the number and proximity of alcohol outlets in an area, and higher rates of consumption and associated alcohol-related harms [22,23,24,25], including some studies from Scotland [26,27]. However, the extent to which this association reflects a causal relationship and, if so, the mechanisms by which effects are exerted, remains the subject of study, since much of the research is cross-sectional and the validity of measures of the availability of alcohol premises uncertain [25,28,29,30,31,32].…”

“…Many countries, including the constituent countries of the UK, have restricted which premises are allowed to sell alcohol through the issuing of permits by local authorities (or local legislators in Northern Ireland) [21,25,31,33]. Historically, UK licensing systems developed as administrative and reactive systems originally designed as a means of limiting public disorder and regulating behaviour, though health considerations have played a part, albeit limited, in motivating legislative change [18,34].…”

“…Analyses from Miller et al 27 contrast Newcastle with Geelong and provide further evidence that trading hour restrictions are more effective than various policing and safety measures implemented in Geelong (e.g. safe taxi ranks, night-watch radio program, identification scanners, high-visibility policing).…”

“…Some of the initiatives were controversial in both the medical literature and the broader media 7 . ‐ 9 , 13 Our study was undertaken to assess the impact of these measures on alcohol‐related serious injury, and also to determine the possible impact on emergency services in the relevant catchment area. Our study is timely in view of the review process currently being undertaken by the Australian Government on the impact of the lockout laws 14…”
