A new time change trial which aims to curb alcohol related harm will begin on Monday 11 December.
Announced earlier this month, and requested by the Northern Territory Police Commissioner, the Chief Minister has signed a Section 88 declaration under the Liquor Act, which will alter bottle shop opening times in Greater Darwin including Palmerston and parts of the rural area.
Monday to Friday trading hours for sale of takeaway liquor will change from opening at 10am to 12 noon.
Weekends and public holidays will remain the same.
Trading hours in all other regions are location specific and will be unchanged.
This is a trial which will go until 25 January, where it will then be reviewed.
