Alcohol Licensing

“New figures show the high death toll from alcohol across Scotland and expose the scale of Scotland’s alcohol problem compared to the rest of the UK with death rates nearly 6 times the UK level.

The figures, revealed in a Parliamentary Answer by Health Secretary Nicola Sturgeon, add to the case for the Scottish Parliament to introduce serious measures to address Scotland’s relationship with alcohol and support the proposals put forward by the SNP to crack down on cheap alcohol and to encourage responsible drinking.”

Under increasing scrutiny to show responsible retailing, licensed premises are facing their toughest challenges yet to ensure their legislative compliance.

Personal Licence Holder training

Suitable for all owners, managers and supervisors in the On and Off sales trade enabling the application for a Personal Licence on successful completion. This will allow individuals to authorise and supervise the sale of alcohol. Those who are Named Premises Managers on a premises licence application must have this qualification.

Staff Mandatory training

All staff must now complete 2 hours mandatory training before selling or serving alcohol. Our trainers can supply this as a facilitated workshop. Alternatively we can supply City & Guilds workbooks to allow your own Personal Licence Holders to complete and supervise staff training and sign records for evidence of due diligence.

Refusal Books

As part of your responsible retailing the use of these refusal books prove that you and your team understand the need to refuse sale of alcohol at certain times. They can also be used as a tool in staff training and can provide evidence of due dilligence.

I’ve been a wild rover for many a year
And I spent all my money on whiskey and beer,
And now I’m returning with gold in great store
And I never will play the wild rover no more.

chorus: And it’s no, nay, never,
No nay never no more,
Will I play the wild rover
No never no more.

I went to an ale-house I used to frequent
And I told the landlady my money was spent.
I asked her for credit, she answered me “nay
Such a custom as yours I could have any day.”

chorus

I took from my pocket ten sovereigns bright
And the landlady’s eyes opened wide with delight.
She said “I have whiskey and wines of the best
And the words that I spoke sure were only in jest.”

chorus

I’ll go home to my parents, confess what I’ve done
And I’ll ask them to pardon their prodigal son.
And if they forgive me as ofttimes before
Sure I never will play the wild rover no more.
