LIQUOR LICENCES IN TAUPO
“NO JUSTIFICATION FOR INCREASE” LICENSING COMMISSION’S DECISION (New Zealand Press Association) WELLINGTON, December 22. The Licensing Control Commission docs nut consider that there is any justification for the granting of a new publican's licence in Taupo, nor that sufficient need has been established to warrant a wholesale licence for that area. Although the evidence indicated there were plans for large-scale development in the Atiamuri area, the commission does not consider the granting of a tourist house licence is warranted at*this stage. Giving its decision, the commission said that in the course of public sittings at Rotorua in October it had heard evidence to review the distribution of licences in the northern part of the .Waimarino licensing district. There were three hotels in Taupo and one at Rangitaiki. There was a further hotel at ’Wairakei, which had been brought up to a high standard by the Health Resorts Department The commission had given consideration to the existing hotels, and after careful deliberation and with some hesitation had decided that it should not cancel any licences. It made a number of decisions involving rebuilding, reconstruction, or renovation.
