Over recent months, the Western Cape Liquor Authority received and processed an increased number of liquor licence applications associated with petrol stations.

In September 2021, the Liquor Licensing Tribunal (LLT) postponed the hearing of five such applications to incorporate broader public participation based on the nature of these applications; requiring participation to extend beyond residents of the area where a licence is sought and to include traffic and commuters who may visit the service stations concerned. 

Following the conclusion of the broader public participation process, comments received from the public were collated and submitted to the LLT. The LLT then requested that the public comments and a covering summary be made available to the relevant Applicants to allow them the opportunity to make further representations.
