Reasons for decisions about liquor and gaming licence applications
New liquor or gaming licence applications in Queensland can receive comments or objections from the community, local government, police, the Minister or a local member of parliament. When this happens, we must publish the reasons for the Commissioner for Liquor and Gaming's decisions on the applications.
Decisions will be published on this page within 28 days of the date of the decision and remain online for 3 months. These decisions relate to both liquor licence and gaming machine licence applications.
