New South Wales Deputy Premier Troy Grant recently signalled an early review, and possible reform, of liquor laws introduced in February 2014. They mean operators of licensed venues in the Sydney CBD and Kings Cross area must "lock out" patrons after 1.30am, and cease selling alcohol at 3am. Pubs and clubs had applauded any move to have the regulations scaled back, but this was opposed by police and by doctors’ lobby groups. Premier Mike Baird has now ruled out amending the current system
