Licence conditions (4)
  1. We are a national retailer that sells alcohol as part of a broad offering of goods and services. We have held off-licences in our stores for many years and are an approved British Institute of Inn-Keeping examination centre. We have written training policies and formal training programmes are in place, which ensure our people are equipped to meet all licensing objectives. All training and revision/refresher materials are reviewed regularly and are currently being re-written to reflect the requirement of the new Act. We have introduced out `Think 21` policy to all of our stores in July 2004, this policy is bought to customer's attention through point of sale material at the checkout and wherever alcohol is displayed for sale. We take legal compliance very seriously and in addition to local training we employ a central alcohol licensing compliance manager and have a compliance committee. All the measures that we currently have in place during licensed hours would continue to be in place during any additional hours that alcohol would be sold in the store.,.
