boriginal people are behind a surge in support for alcohol bans in their communities, according to the West Australian government, which is crediting restrictions with helping curb domestic violence and increasing school attendance. Complete bans will be implemented soon at two Kimberley communities at their own request, bringing the number of communities with a ban on alcohol to six. Only one of those communities, Oombulgurri, had the ban imposed by the government without the backing of the community.

Binge drinking of Alcohol is endemic in the East Kimberley for black and white.. When one considers the safe level of drinking is now two, yes 2, standard drinks per day for males and females
One should consider the volumes being consumed now.
Lets look at a hypothetical. If a takeaway/ drive-in makes on one till $25,000 to $27,000 per day what is the math’s?
Let’s face it as a bar manager stated once. ”Honey, where in it for the money..!”" Motivation is a factor in the question of reducing of supply. Not Prohibition but reduction.Harm Minimilisation
Remember TWO STANDARD DRINKS.
