Retail Cannabis Store Handbook
Policies
- As per Section 90.05 GLCA, licensees and staff are prohibited from providing or selling cannabis to anyone who appears to be intoxicated by liquor or a drug.
Guidelines
- A person who is intoxicated may:
- stagger (have an unsteady walk);
- have poor coordination;
- slur their words;
- have bloodshot eyes and/or breath that smells of alcohol;
- be messy in appearance; or
- behave in an overly bold, disruptive manner.
- If licensee staff is aware an apparently intoxicated person drove to the licensed premises, the staff should suggest the person take a taxi and offer to call for one.
- If an apparently intoxicated person leaves a licensed premise and gets into a motor vehicle to drive, licensee staff should note the licence plate number, model and colour of the vehicle and the direction the vehicle is travelling, and notify police immediately.
