Beer Industry Calls for 'Rebalanced' Duty System
Scrapping the proposed duty increase on beer would save more than 10,000 jobs in the coming year, it has been claimed.
The British Beer & Pub Association has condemned the “destructive” beer tax policy introduced by Labour and urged the coalition to “rebalance” the duty system to favour on-trade consumption of beer, and to penalise higher-strength products like spirits.
“If the Government scraps plans, put in place by the previous administration, to further increase beer duty above inflation this could save over 10,000 jobs in 2011/12 alone,” the BBPA said in its Budget submission.
“The latest Oxford Economics research for the BBPA also shows a freeze in beer duty could generate up to £40 million in additional tax revenue, boosting beer sales and employment in pubs whilst stemming the 29 pub closures per week.

Guide for Pubs for British Tourism Week
The British Beer & Pub Association has produced a guide for pubs and brewers, encouraging them to get involved in British Tourism Week 2011, which runs from 12th to 20th March. The week presents an opportunity to showcase the central role that pubs play in Britain’s tourism and hospitality sector – and make sure this message gets home where it counts.
Pubs can get involved through activities such as quizzes, special meals and events – and by shaping the debate on British Tourism Week’s ‘constituency day’ by inviting their local MP to come and visit the pub on Friday 18th March, and pull a pint to mark the occasion – reminding them just how Britain’s tourism industry depends on pubs.
Brewers can also get involved in British Tourism Week. With British beers a cultural icon, the use of our unique beer and brewing heritage as a magnet for visitors has become increasingly important.
This year’s events include a special celebration of coastal piers, so pubs and breweries that are nearby will have an even greater opportunity to benefit from the activities surrounding these iconic parts of our tourism heritage.

Change of Use News: Pub to be redeveloped into supermarket
An award-winning pub will be subject to a change of use if plans for a new supermarket go ahead.
The Wimborne-based Royal Oak in Dorset is located on land that has been assigned for redevelopment in a bid to regenerate the area, the BBC reported.
Hill Richmond, the landowner, told the news provider: "The area has been earmarked by Bournemouth council for a supermarket and convenience shops, with an additional 150 car parking spaces."
Martin Burke, director of the company, said: "We are sorry that the pub land is needed to carry out the essential highways improvements for this redevelopment, but we hope that our scheme will help regenerate the Kinson area for the benefit of local people, who will not have to travel further afield for their weekly shop."
The Royal Oak has been named winter pub of the season by the local branch of the Campaign for Real Ale and is nominated for the Pub of the Year Award.

TV Pubs and Clubs Loophole Angers Premier League
The Premier League has criticised legal advice which could allow pubs and clubs to screen its matches at any time, reports the BBC.
The European Union's advocate general has said that a Portsmouth publican was entitled to show top-flight games decoded from a Greek satellite signal.
But the Premier League said such a policy would "damage the interests of broadcasters and viewers of Premier League football across the EU".
Sky Sports and ESPN hold the rights to live Premier League matches in the UK.
That means pubs, clubs and other public venues wishing to screen games have to pay a monthly subscription.

Australian Pubs Use Biometrics to Curb Violence
Pubs and clubs in Australia are signing up in droves to national and state biometrics databases that capture patron fingerprints, photos, and scanned driver licenses in efforts to curb violence.
The databases of captured patron information mean that individuals banned at one location could be refused entry across a string of venues. Particularly violent individuals could be banned for years.
The databases are virtually free from government regulation as biometrics are not covered by privacy laws, meaning that the handling of details are left to the discretion of technology vendors.
"You don't get on the ban list because you didn't want to go home," said Peter Perrett, chief executive of database company ID-Tect. "You get on there because you are a safety risk."

Scottish Rural Pubs Fight Back
Owners of rural pubs and hotels in the Donside area are calling for the Scottish government to do more to help their businesses.
Local pubs say they have been hit hard by the low prices of alcohol on offer from supermarkets and this has forced some out of business.
Paul MacLennan, the owner of the Colquhonnie House Hotel in Strathdon, spoke to the Piper about why all rural pubs should feel under threat.
He said: “Living in the rural community is a important way of life for many people but rural pubs are disappearing.
“Pubs pay around 9% of their gross profit on alcohol sales in Business rates compared to Tesco who only pay 2% on their total alcohol sales. How can this be right?
“Only last week I visited my local cash and carry and it is a bad sign when you are told that you can get the majority of the items cheaper in the supermarket.
“Pubs and hotels need to find a unique selling point, but even this does not guarantee success these days.”
Mr Maclennan, who is also the chairman of the Aberdeenshire Central Licensing Forum has called on the Scottish government to act quickly.
“Does the Scottish Government really think that rural communities can keep absorbing these cuts to their way of life?
