All opposed alcohol licensing applications must be heard by the District Licensing Committee at a public hearing.
The District Licensing Committee Chairperson and two appointed District Licensing Committee members hear the application.
All parties are given an equal opportunity to present their views.
Hearings are usually held at:
Whangarei District Council Chambers
Te Iwitahi
9 Rust Avenue
Whangārei
District Licensing Committee hearings are open to the public, including members of the press.
On occasion, it may be necessary to exclude the public from some parts of a hearing (for example when the Committee feels the privacy of an individual needs to be protected).
If requested by the applicant at the time of notification of the hearing, evidence may be given in te reo Māori. An interpreter will be made available.
The District Licensing Committee will also consider any reasonable request made by a person to take part remotely in a hearing, or any part of a hearing.
