Alcohol reforms are seen as a step in the right direction by a hospo industry voice. 

The Government's proposing to allow businesses a right of reply around licensing objections and is allowing wineries and breweries the ability to have both an off and on licence. 

Hospitality NZ’s Head of Advocacy Sam MacKinnon told Mike Hosking there’s a range of measures in these reforms, and they all support hospitality. 

He says they’re pleased overall with the direction of travel.
