Nick is joined by Labour MP Kieran McAnulty, who is fronting the new bill that will scrap the Easter alcohol rules. 

Bars & restaurants (on-licence venues) will be able to sell alcohol normally on Good Friday & Easter Sunday.

No more needing to buy a “substantial meal” just to get a drink.

McAnulty shares why the rule change is necessary, saying it's silly and will make life easier for hospo visitors and workers. 

Note: Since the interview this morning the bill has been signed off by the Governor General and will be active for Easter Weekend
