"To everyone at the Redditch office.
I would like to take this opportunity to say a "Big Thank, You", to all of you for you and your colleagues for assisting and supporting my dad to pass his personal licence training. It made my day when I heard and I even got out a bottle of champagne.
This is such a huge achievement for him and I am very pleased that we booked the course through you.
Once again, thank you ever so much.
All the best
Sophia Taws".

Section 6 of The Alcohol etc. (Scotland) Act 2010 introduces a new mandatory condition for all premises licences and occasional licences requiring that there must be an age verification policy in place in relation to the sale of alcohol on the premises. The section has set a minimum age of 25 years for the policy where it appears to the person selling the alcohol that the customer may be under the age of 25 years. Premises may set any minimum age for their own policy provided that it is 25 years or over.

Challenge 25 for Scotand
On the first of October 2011 a challenge policy was introduced in to the Scottish Licensing Act (2005)

It became law for all retail premises selling alcohol and age restricted products to operate a " Challenge 25 policy". The Act provides no guidance as to the wording of any Policy but the licence holder must have a Policy in place.
So what is Challenge 25? let us explain in simple terms!
Anyone who appears under the age of 25 should be challenged to prove their age when attempting to purchase alcohol or any other age restricted products
In verifying age, it is reasonable to presume that only the following documents will be satisfactory to comply with the verification policy:-
Passport; or
European Photocard Driving Licence; or
Proof of age card bearing a ‘PASS’ hologram.
European Photocard Driving Licence; or
Proof of age card bearing a ‘PASS’ hologram.
We at alcohol licence.org would advise on the following forms of identification.
- UK Driving Licence
- UK Provisional Driving Licence
- Valid Passport
- Pass Hologram Identity Card (Young Scott Card) etc
If the above documentation is not produced on request then the Policy cannot be complied with and the sale of alcohol should be refused.
The Policy must be in place on or before Saturday 1 October 2011. A failure to comply with this mandatory condition will be a criminal offence in terms of the Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005 which could result in a fine and/or imprisonment. It could also result in a review of the Premises Licence resulting in suspension or revocation of the Licence.
So to help we have been asked to design a Challenge 25 Poster for Scotland so here it is and you can download it free of charge!
What wonderful people we are! You can also order some poster's by calling 01527 544 780

Challenge 25 or Challenge 21 What is the best policy?
Deciding which is the best challenge policy for your business can be a difficult choice, however we advise that for high street retailers such as an off licence businesses or a mini market, challenge 25 is the best policy and one that is adopted by most of the big supermarket chains. Pubs and bars tend to stick with challenge 21 but not all in some areas many bars and pubs are now choosing to operate a challenge 25 policy.
So lets try and explain the difference! with challenge 21 you only have a 3 years between the age of 18 and 21, but with the challenge 25 policy the gap is 7 years, therefore staff are less likely to make a mistake when asking for proof of age. An unauthorised sale of alcohol to a trading standards test purchaser will lead to an on the spot fine for the person involved and an interview under caution at the local police station or trading standards office which may also then lead to a criminal prosecution in Magistrates Court.
The maximum fine under the licensing Act 2003 for selling alcohol to an underage person is currently £5,000
Another concideration for retailers to be aware of is Section 147A of the licensing Act 2003 "persistently selling alcohol to children"
Section 147A makes it an offence to sell alcohol to a child under 18 from the same premises on two or more occasions within a period of three consecutive months. The section applies to the person being responsible in relation to the premises at the time of each sale.
It should be noted that there is an alternative to criminal prosecution for the offence of persistently selling alcohol to children. Under section 169 A of the Licensing Act 2003, a closure notice may be given where there is evidence that an offence under section 147A is committed, there is considered to be a realistic prospect of conviction and the offender is still a holder of a premises licence in relation to the relevant premises. A closure notice shall propose a prohibition on sales of alcohol on the relevant premises not to exceed 48 hours. The form of a closure notice is prescribed in The Licensing Act 2003 (Persistent Selling of Alcohol to Children) (Prescribed Form of Closure Notice) Regulations 2007, which came into force on 3 May 2007.
A person guilty of an offence under this section is liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level £10,000.
