Pub Watch

Pub Watch is when the police and local licensees meet to discuss incidents that occurred within their establishments. After these have been discussed, we collectively decide on what positive action can be taken in order to prevent this from happening again.

The main purpose of these meetings are to ensure you, as members of the Wellington community, are safe and can enjoy your much-deserved down time in the pubs and licensed premises.

A number of pubs confiscated fake IDs from youths. These IDs have been handed to police, who will be visiting all concerned.
