Queensland liquor laws to be relaxed Posted Sun Mar 17, 2013 10:50am AEDT Map: QLD The State Government is planning to lift the requirement for liquor permits at fundraising events for schools and community groups in Queensland. Attorney-General Jarrod Bleijie says current regulations are complicated and unnecessary. The legislation is expected to be introduced in Parliament this week. The plan would also allow hospitals and nursing homes to serve two standard drinks per patient.

Also i thought patients in nursing homes were autonomous and could have alcohol if they wanted if it didnt interfere with their health? They can in NSW and ACT. . ..

SOB

As Qlders know, there are only 2 states to be in...

1. Queensland (obviously)
2. Pissed

That's why the law is being changed.

Reducing the Nanny State is a good thing.

Well we know Victoria is in a recession.  Oh no that's right I forgot.  Its a liberal state.     :(

Residents in nursing homes in QLD can already have alcohol if it doesn't interfere with their health, and if their family members buy it.

I'm beggining to worry about campbell, power may have gone to his head a bit.

Why am I not surprised that you cannot pick up the subtle differences between these two statements. Being able to serve alcohol is different to permitting it to be brought in and consumed. Now that doesn't mean that nursing homes are going to set up a bar in the dinning room, but the article does not go into enough detail about what these change will be for you to then jump to the conclusion that the article is wrong.

You are a troll and its pretty much just you with the strawman because it seems to be your thing.

the stupid semantics of the laws arent the point. The point is that there is liquor @ school fetes where children are and liquor in hospitals.

No the point was that you are quick to judge without knowing what you are talking about,

"So i was right and the article is wrong - im not surprised."

I was correcting your error. But in your mind that make me a "troll" and someone making "strawman" arguments.

Why do you even post? All you want is for everyone to say 'your so smart spot and you're never wrong'. Soon as anyone engages you you start screaming "troll". You're a pussy.

Oh and its not Newmans doing, He just has to do what the IGNORANT here in queensland tell hiim to do.
