Prohibition in Federal Territory (ACT)[edit]

The Provisional Government Ordinance 1911 (the first 'law' for the new Federal Territory) included a section essentially banning the sale of intoxicating liquor, by http://www.legislation.act.gov.au/ord/1911-1/19110101-49344/pdf/1911-1.pdf It was repealed after a plebiscite (some sources say referendum, although I imagine that since the Territory is being ruled by ordinance, a referendum would not be appropriate), 11 December 1928 http://www.legislation.act.gov.au/ord/1928-24/19281213-49191/pdf/1928-24.pdf And modified again the following year http://www.legislation.act.gov.au/ord/1929-15/19300522-49049/pdf/1929-15.pdf Which stood until 1975, until modified again most recently in 2010. Original research, but there don't seem to be enough encyclopaedic sources. 60.240.207.146 (talk) 09:27, 28 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Change in legal drinking age from 21 to 18[edit]

The table of legal drinking ages state-by-state states that it was changed from 21 to 18 in 1905 in NSW. The reference for the data in this table (reference 1) is a dead link, so I can't check this - however, I do have a memory of the law having been changed, probably in the early 1970s - I was a teenager at that time, not yet 18, and remember being very happy about this news. Laws restricting the service of alcohol on Sundays were also much relaxed at this time (probably by the same bill). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.64.142.162 (talk) 02:58, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
