(2) A licence to which this
section applies is subject to the condition that liquor must not be sold by
retail on the licensed premises for a continuous period of 6 hours (as
determined in accordance with this section) during each consecutive period of
24 hours (
"the 6-hour closure period" ).
(a) granted on or after 30 October 2008 but before the date on which
this section (as inserted by the Liquor Legislation Amendment Act 2008 )
commenced, or
(b) granted by the Local Court (as provided by clause 25 of

(5) The Authority may at any time, on
application by the licensee or by the Secretary or the Commissioner of Police,
or on its own initiative, approve of licensed premises having a different
6-hour closure period than--
(a) the period as last approved by the Authority,
or
(b) the period specified in subsection (4).
(6) Any such application by
the licensee must be accompanied by the fee prescribed by the regulations.
(8) This section has effect despite any other provision of
this Act (in particular, those provisions relating to the
standard trading period for licensed premises).
(9) This section does not,
however, apply to the sale or supply of liquor to a resident of
licensed premises if the liquor is sold or supplied for consumption in the
room in which the resident is residing or staying.
(10) The regulations may
also create exceptions to this section.
