South Australian Consolidated Acts South Australian Consolidated Acts37—Retail liquor merchant's licence
(1) A retail liquor
merchant's licence authorises the licensee—
(a) to
sell liquor on the licensed premises on any day except Good Friday and
Christmas Day between the hours of 8 am and 9 pm, or over a continuous period
authorised by the licensing authority, for consumption off the licensed
premises (but a period authorised by the licensing authority must begin no
earlier than 5 am, must end no later than midnight, and must not exceed
13 hours); and
(ab) to
sell liquor at any time through direct sales transactions (provided that, if
the liquor is to be delivered to an address in this State, the liquor is
despatched and delivered only between the hours of 8 am and 9 pm and not on
Good Friday or Christmas Day); and
(b) to
sell or supply liquor by way of sample for consumption on a part of the
licensed premises approved for the purposes by the licensing authority.
(2) It is a condition
of a retail liquor merchant's licence that the licensed premises must be
devoted entirely to the business conducted under the licence and must be
physically separate from premises used for other commercial purposes.
Exceptions—
1 Goods may be sold in the same premises if they
are of the kind normally associated with, and incidental to, the sale of
liquor (eg glasses, decanters, cheeses and pates).
2 The licensing authority may grant an exemption
from the above condition if satisfied that the demand for liquor in the
relevant locality is insufficient to justify the establishment of separate
premises or there is some other proper reason for granting the exemption.
