The Arran Banner

Prohibitio­n imposed

-

If you want to run a street party with booze flowing freely then Shiskine is the place to be, as when new bylaws come into force on Arran, such celebratio­ns will not be possible anywhere else.

There is to be prohibitio­n of the consumptio­n of alcohol in public places and anywhere out of doors and in all built up areas, except that is, in Shiskine. In drafting the bylaws maps are supplied with designated areas outlined in red. The thin red line however does not extend to Shiskine. Broadly these bylaws mean it will become an offence to drink outwith a licensed canteen, licensed premises or a registered club. The council will put up notices to make it clear that outside drinking is an offence.
