    • amendments introduced by the Immigration Act 2016
    • the latest section 182 Guidance
    • the Alcohol Wholesaler Registration Scheme
    • off-sales review appeals
    • new case law, including The Porky Pint Ltd v. Stockton on Tees BC [2023] EWHC 128 (Admin)
    • closure of premises associated with nuisance or disorder
    • summary reviews in serious cases of crime or disorder
    • minimum pricing for alcohol in Wales
