Inspectors to Ensure Bars Comply to Health Requirements on New Year's Eve
/Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) compliance officials will visit bars and restaurants in Peterborough on New Year’s Eve to ensure compliance with health requirements announced Thursday.
On Dec. 19, 2021, the Government of Ontario introduced public health measures in response to the spread of the COVID-19 Omicron variant.
These measures include a 50 per cent capacity limit in restaurants, bars and other food or drink establishments and strip clubs. Alcohol cannot be sold after 10:00 p.m. and must close by 11:00 p.m.
Violation of the restrictions can include a suspension or revocation of their liquor licence.
“As the countdown to New Year’s Eve approaches, anyone considering heading out to a bar or a restaurant should be aware of all public health measures in place, and not give establishment staff a difficult time for enforcing them,” said Tom Mungham, AGCO registrar and CEO.
