According to Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk the state’s liquor licensing laws are working.

According to the premier, the fact that there are a reduced number of people being admitted to Queensland hospitals due to alcohol since the laws came into effect, is proof that the laws are working.

She also said the police and ambulance services in the state had reported a decline in violence in the state. See more at: http://www.skynews.com.au/news/national/qld/2016/08/22/qld-s-premier-says-alcohol-laws-are-working.html#sthash.CFefcJ0H.dpuf
