The Liquor Act 2019 is an act enacted and signed into legislation by the Northern Territory Legislative Assembly in 2019, which introduces a statutory minimum price for alcohol inorder to counter alcohol problems.

Background

In 2010, a report was published into alcohol culture in the Northern Territory, suggesting that alcohol was one of the main causes of indigenous child abuse in the territory.[1] The territory reportedly measured the highest proportion of deaths due to alcohol consumption across all jurisdictions in Australia,[2]

In 2013, the Chief Minister of the Northern Territory described drinking culture as a "core social value" of the Northern Territory.[3] The Northern Territory has had a long history of alcohol abuse, with a percentage of 44.[4]

Riley Review

In October 2017, the Riley review into alcohol legislation in the territory was published.[5][6] The report recommended sweeping changes to the Liquor Act 1978.

Impact

Initially there was a community backlash against the act - several Territory Labor Party members of the Legislative Assembly acknowledged that communication around the act had not been handled well, that the party was 'in a muddle'.[7]

Three years after the introduction of the policy, a review painted a mixed picture of the success of minimum unit pricing, noting that the COVID-19 pandemic had creating confounding factors which meant all available results were significantly reduced.[8][9]

The increase of the price from the initial value of AU$1.30 to AU$1.50 will give researchers a second chance to study the impact of the increased minimum price.[9]
