The Victorian Commission for Gambling and Liquor Regulation (VCGLR) has created a new online portal to streamline the process to vary or add new nominees and directors to existing liquor licences.
It is the first stage in improving the online environment to help all Victorian licensees manage and regulate their liquor licence.
The new online application will simplify the process for licensees to add or vary directors or nominees by providing the opportunity:
A pilot of the system was conducted with major licensees, Coles, Woolworths and Aldi, to ensure the system is user friendly and provides a more modern approach to how we regulate Victorian liquor licences.
A Coles spokesperson has supported the new process stating the portal
“is a good initiative to reduce the cost of doing business and unnecessary red tape and delays.”
To access the portal and more information on adding or varying directors and nominees, please visit the add or register page.
The current add or vary liquor licence directors and nominees form will remain available for use as part of the transition. At the end of this transition period, only online applications will be accepted.
