Ban on sale of alcohol to remain in force
17 April 2020
The Presidency has declined the request of the Gauteng Liquor Forum for its members to sell alcohol during the declared national state of disaster.
The restriction on the sale of liquor will remain.
The decision was communicated to the Forum’s attorneys on 17 April 2020 via the offices of the State Attorney.
The President and government as a whole remain committed to financially supporting businesses in distress during this period.
