Like all regulators, LCV is faced with choices on where and how best to dedicate its limited resources to deliver best outcomes and value for the Victorian community.
LCV aims to make smart decisions on how it uses resources to get maximum results through its decisionmaking frameworks which prioritise harm minimisation.
LCV regulates to ensure alcohol is supplied responsibly and treats harm minimisation as a key focus through all of its activities.
LCV considers that a licence to supply alcohol comes with significant responsibilities and we expect that licensees and prospective licensees demonstrate their awareness of the harm that alcohol can cause and an ongoing understanding and commitment to their obligations as a licensee to minimising harm.
LCV takes appropriate, strong, fair, risk-based compliance actions and sets clear expectations that industry participants must actively embed harm minimisation measures into all their activities to protect the community.
