Abstract

This study was commissioned by the (then) Commonwealth Department of Families, Housing, Community Services and Indigenous Affairs (FaHCSIA) and the (then) NT Department of Justice, and funded by the Australian federal government. It was commissioned in 2012, and the research took place in early 2013. The study has two aims: -  Appraising harm levels associated with the operation of licensed social clubs in communities as compared to communities without such clubs;  Identifying what the best practice social club models would look like, and how these can best support responsible drinking which contributes to managed alcohol consumption and reduction in levels of alcohol related harms (Request for Tender, NT Dept of Justice, 2012).,
