1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,679 Speaker 1: Now, we've spoken quite a bit over recent days about 2 00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:05,000 Speaker 1: some of the issues that are being experienced well in 3 00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:07,600 Speaker 1: some of the Northern Territories, smaller towns when it comes 4 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:11,000 Speaker 1: to continued crime. Some of those issues also relating to 5 00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:14,520 Speaker 1: the misuse of alcohol. There has been some suggestion the 6 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:17,959 Speaker 1: opposition obviously coming out saying that they believe that a 7 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:22,239 Speaker 1: BDR for some licensed venues would be a good thing, 8 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 1: but what would it actually mean to those licensed venues. 9 00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:29,160 Speaker 1: Joining me in the studio to talk a little bit 10 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 1: more about this is Kathy Simmons, the CEO of Hospitality 11 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,440 Speaker 1: here in the Northern Territory. Good morning to you, Kathy. 12 00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:37,160 Speaker 2: Good morning, how you doing? 13 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, really good, lovely to have you on the show. Now, 14 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 1: do you think it's time to introduce a BDR for 15 00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:42,800 Speaker 1: licensed venues? 16 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 2: No, I don't, No, I don't. 17 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,800 Speaker 1: Now tell me why and what impact do you think 18 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 1: it would have on some of those licensed venues. 19 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:52,839 Speaker 2: Look, you know we all live in the territory. We 20 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 2: all know alcohol related at harm is a serious issue. 21 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 2: But the fact remains that eighty five percent of alcohol 22 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 2: consumed in the territory is purchased at bottle shops and 23 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,760 Speaker 2: then consumed at home or in the park or in 24 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 2: the street. That's what's causing, that's fueling the alcohol related harm. 25 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 2: It's not pubs and clubs where there's staff who are 26 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,959 Speaker 2: trained in responsible service of alcohol and people just want 27 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 2: to go and have a nice time. 28 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 1: In terms of like the logistics of there being a 29 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 1: BDR as well inside a license venue, like how would 30 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: it work. I suppose if you go into a nightclub 31 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 1: or somewhere you expect to show your ID, I wouldn't 32 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,039 Speaker 1: see it as being a big impost. But when you 33 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 1: go out to dinner, I guess at a nice restaurant, 34 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: it might be a little bit different. Now, the opposition 35 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 1: leader had said to me earlier in the week. You know, 36 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 1: she's not talking about businesses like that. It's more so 37 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,959 Speaker 1: different venues where it may be known that they can 38 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 1: sort of be hot spots. I mean, I guess I'm 39 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: thinking she means maybe more pubs in some locations. I'm 40 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 1: not really sure. 41 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 2: Well, I'm not sure what she means by certain venues 42 00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 2: in certain locations. Like I said, every stuff member in 43 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 2: the hospitality industry in a venue like that or any 44 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 2: other venue is trained in responsible service of alcohol. You 45 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 2: want to serve a glass of wine, you want to 46 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 2: serve a shot of vodka, you have to be trained 47 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 2: in responsible service of alcohol. So that's something that we're 48 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,800 Speaker 2: really you know, that's why we're pushing back on something 49 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 2: like these because it's just not feasible. How do you 50 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 2: go out for a post work drink and shout around 51 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 2: for your girlfriends? Like, do you all get scanned on 52 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 2: the BDR or is it just the person buying it's not, 53 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 2: it's not on. 54 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,640 Speaker 1: Do you feel as though we're in a situation in 55 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: the Northern Territory at the moment where you know, when 56 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: something goes wrong it is more looked at the industry 57 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: to make changes rather than the people that are actually 58 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 1: doing the wrong thing. 59 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 2: That is kind of what we're feeling. Absolutely it is 60 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 2: the focus so far has totally been on regulating the 61 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 2: industry instead of focusing on problem drinking. A lot of 62 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 2: people in the territory, a lot of Territorians are just 63 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,359 Speaker 2: ordinary people who like a bottle of wine with dinner 64 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 2: with their family, go out for a meal. That's not 65 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,920 Speaker 2: where alcohol related harm is coming from. Alcohol related harm 66 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 2: is caused by irresponsible drinking, and that's down to drinkers 67 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,800 Speaker 2: to make sure that they are behaving correctly as well. 68 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 1: Kathy, what a business is saying to you at the 69 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: moment when it comes to the misuse of alcohol or 70 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: you know, like I guess some of our hospitality businesses 71 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 1: are actually the victims of crime at the moment, you know, 72 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: senseless sort of break ins, alcohol being stolen, that kind 73 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,239 Speaker 1: of thing. What are they saying to you at the moment, Well. 74 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 2: They're saying to me that they've obviously had enough. Like 75 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 2: it's very expensive. Insurance. Premiums just keep going up, and 76 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 2: at this point, a lot of members don't even bother 77 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 2: claiming because a six hundred dollar window is cheaper than 78 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 2: a thousand dollars excess claim and then premiums going up again. 79 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 2: It's untenable, but it is something that they all have 80 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 2: to now budget for. And yes, people break in and 81 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 2: they look for alcohol and they steal alcohol. Often those kids, 82 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 2: it's often new teenagers or younger. They're stealing the alcohol. 83 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 2: They're not drunk themselves, they're not interested in drinking themselves. 84 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 2: They're interested in selling the alcohol or providing it to 85 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 2: family members or providing it to you whoever. That's it's 86 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 2: it's really complex issue. 87 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: This tell me in terms of the BDR like it. 88 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: It's a big no from hospitality in terms of a 89 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: BDR in licensed venues. Do you think though, that the 90 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 1: BDR needs to be more effective and efficient? 91 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, we do. That's the government has said that they're 92 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 2: conducting a BDR review, a review that was an election 93 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 2: commitment part of their focus on crime and law and order, 94 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 2: which is great and I think that's you know, really 95 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 2: promising to see. So that's that's definitely something We support 96 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 2: that review and we will be you know, participating in 97 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 2: that review when that's coming around. But you know, it's 98 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 2: been really good to hear the comments from the Chief 99 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 2: Binister saying, oh BDR on in venues is not really 100 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:58,040 Speaker 2: it will really impact the lifestyle. 101 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 1: I think now in terms of some locals in Catherine 102 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,279 Speaker 1: are saying that they've seen an increase in cheap broken 103 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 1: wine bottles. You know, that's more in terms of takeaway 104 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 1: out let's. I know that hospitality with the takeaway out 105 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 1: let's say, really on the outlets that are attached to venues, 106 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 1: so not your major bottle shops, et cetera. But do 107 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: you think that reintroduction of cheap alcohol has had an 108 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:20,839 Speaker 1: impact in any way. 109 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 2: Well, I don't really see it as a reintroduction. The 110 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 2: alcohol was always there. The removal of the minimum Munich 111 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 2: price hasn't seen prices drop like you know, plummets as 112 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 2: far as you know, you can get a bottle of 113 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 2: four dollars a four dollar bottle of wine down South, 114 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 2: and that's not quite the case here. But you know, 115 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 2: I don't, not being Catherine, I haven't seen the proliferation 116 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 2: of the glass. But glass is obviously a huge problem. 117 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 2: Some of the freaking out about cask wine dropping in 118 00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 2: price maybe misdirected because at least that doesn't result weapon 119 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 2: at the end of the day. 120 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 1: In terms of our police officers or the palis on 121 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: bottle shops see police auxiliaries, that's something that we had 122 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: seen quite a bit of. I know that at the 123 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: moment our police are stretched, so you know they're sort 124 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 1: of out at different areas. But should those palies be 125 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: back on bottle shops or does it make a difference 126 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: from hospitalities perspective. 127 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, it definitely makes a difference. There's if you look 128 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 2: at the legislation behind private security, which a lot of 129 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 2: my license venues have, it's at a lot of bottle 130 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 2: shops as well, whether they're my members or not. If 131 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 2: you look at the legislation behind private security versus palis, 132 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,599 Speaker 2: palies just have a lot more power. You know, real 133 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:37,799 Speaker 2: police have a lot more power and a lot more 134 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 2: access to information and a lot more powers to ask 135 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 2: people for access to that information around court orders, domestic 136 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 2: violence orders and more. And palies have been so effective 137 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 2: in reducing purchasing of alcohol by people who are going 138 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 2: to have harmful behaviors because of it. 139 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,479 Speaker 1: Kathy, we did see some changes obviously come into play 140 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 1: after the tragic death of deck On and Lavity. One 141 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: of those I thought was that our private security and 142 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,679 Speaker 1: also some stuff correct me if I'm wrong, could actually 143 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 1: have capsicum spray or oc spray. Has that sort of 144 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: rolled out in the hostel venues or has it not 145 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: really been taken up. 146 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 2: There's been a few licenses for security to carry pepper spray, 147 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 2: capsule spray, The uptake hasn't been super widespread. It's quite 148 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 2: a heavily regulated license, which is as it should be. 149 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 2: I'd like to investigate that a bit more, to be honest, 150 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 2: to see what it is that's holding that back. And 151 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 2: also even if the capsicum spray is issue, like, what 152 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 2: are the conditions under which it can be deployed as well? 153 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, and then what are the ramifications for those security 154 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: or whoever is actually deploying it. Are they then going 155 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: to be in a situation where they're so worried about 156 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 1: the you know, the ramifications of using it that they're 157 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: sort of going, we'll hang on a set. I don't 158 00:07:58,480 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: even want this as an option. 159 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 2: Well, that's right. I think it is useful as a 160 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 2: deterrent if it is known that a lot of security 161 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 2: do have it. Right now, private security is not seen 162 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 2: as much of a deterrent. I think we can see 163 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 2: that and a lot of places, for example, the city 164 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 2: will worths, like people just walk in and then walk 165 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 2: out with their groceries and it's quite distressing. 166 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, it is distressing, and it's in your face, like 167 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 1: everybody can see it. And then you're thinking to yourself, 168 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: goodness me, there's people brazenly breaking the lawyah, which is 169 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:33,839 Speaker 1: like it's upsetting to say, right. 170 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 2: And security for their safety as well are instructed don't engage, 171 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 2: don't escalate it. What is going on? What are we 172 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 2: doing here? 173 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: Well, this is the thing, and then you know, it 174 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,559 Speaker 1: gets to the point where sometimes people are the expectation 175 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: is that they can do that in other venues, in 176 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 1: licensed venues, in hospitality businesses, other places, and it winds 177 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 1: up a dangerous situation for the people working there. 178 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,599 Speaker 2: That's right, and that's what we've seen in Nightcliffe. You 179 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 2: imagine having a security guard at a supermarket. The alcohol 180 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,439 Speaker 2: is all locked away, it's all safe, it's all regulated. 181 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 2: Someone has walked into a supermarket and walked out with 182 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 2: items and they've tried to be stopped and a tragedy 183 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 2: has occurred. It's not right for people to go to 184 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 2: work at a supermarket or conduct themselves at a business 185 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 2: and not expect to think there's a risk about coming 186 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 2: home at the end of the day. It's not on It's. 187 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 1: Not acceptable at all, and it's really sad then it's happened. 188 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 2: And I just want to make the point as well. 189 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 2: Folks down south. You go down south, you go to Sydney, 190 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 2: you go to Melbourne, you go to Adelaide, you go 191 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 2: even to small towns in those jurisdictions. They don't have 192 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 2: the problems like we have problems, and they also don't 193 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 2: have the restrictions on venues on alcohol. There's something else 194 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 2: here that we really need to talk about, and it's 195 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 2: individual responsibility on the person who is engaging in harmful behaviors. 196 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: What interesting isn't it when you go into state like 197 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,079 Speaker 1: I was in Tasmania. It's a little while back now, 198 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 1: probably a year ago, and I couldn't believe it. We 199 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 1: went to buy petrol and there's like a bit of 200 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 1: a supermarket attached. You could buy a bottle of wine 201 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 1: as well. 202 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 2: I was like, goodness me, it's because adults can be 203 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 2: trusted to behave in a responsible way. Ordinary territories go out, 204 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 2: have a nice night with their mates, get on the 205 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 2: beers and it's fine. Like it's usually very much fine. 206 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:32,599 Speaker 2: But it's irresponsible consumption that causes alcohol related harm. The 207 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 2: responsible consumption is not harmful. 208 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 1: Tell me, Kathy. In terms of the industry at the moment, 209 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: tracking more generally, how are things going. There seems to 210 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: be a few more tourists around the place, Like obviously 211 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:47,319 Speaker 1: we had Base in the Grass on the weekend. I 212 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,439 Speaker 1: think the Gin festivals on this weekend. Like there's so 213 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 1: much going on at the. 214 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 2: Moment, So much going on at the moment feels amazing, 215 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:56,960 Speaker 2: doesn't it? So base was huge. It was massive. You 216 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 2: can see all the families and kids and every one 217 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 2: getting around the city before and then walking up to 218 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 2: the gardens and coming back to the city afterwards. Maybe 219 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 2: not the kids, but you know, everyone over age coming 220 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 2: back to the city and having a great time afterwards. 221 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:16,479 Speaker 2: It feels amazing. Gin Festival this weekend, Temper Trap headlining. 222 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 2: Get there for that. It's going to be amazing.
