Senator Jacinta Price preparing bill to reinstate alcohol bans

 




Northern Territory Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price is drafting a private bill to reinstate long-term alcohol bans in remote Northern Territory Indigenous communities.

 

Aboriginal health services are among those reporting increases in alcohol-related issues since the bans were lifted.

 

The bans were put in place as part of the NT Emergency Response in 2007.
