Risk-Assessed Management Plan (RAMP) Documents for Licensed Venues

Risk Assessed Management Plan (RAMP) – A Key Compliance Requirement

Since January 2009, the Liquor Act 1992 has required many liquor license applications to be supported by a Risk Assessed Management Plan (RAMP). A RAMP is a venue-specific document that outlines how a licensee will manage alcohol-related risks, ensuring the responsible service of alcohol and compliance with liquor laws.

Failing to submit an approved RAMP can delay or even prevent your application from being approved.

When Is a RAMP Required?

A RAMP must be submitted for:
✅ New liquor licenses
✅ Extended trading hours applications (before 10 AM or after midnight)
✅ Permanent variations to a license
✅ Changes in a licensed area
✅ License transfers
✅ Restricted Liquor Permits
