Licensing, Consumer
Beer measuring instruments dispensed smaller quantities than permitted by law. The joint licensees were not permitted to interfere with the measuring instruments, so it was held that they did not have such possession of them as would give rise to liability under section 16(1) of the Act. Referring to Sopp and Goodfellow, "I do not, as at present advised, see any reason to doubt the correctness of these two decisions. They establish the proposition that, where a licensee of licensed premises, who is alone permitted under the Licensing Acts to handle and hand over intoxicating liquor to a customer at such premises, chooses to perform those acts through the agency of another person, such as a barmaid employed by the same company or other organisation as he is employed by, he is under the same criminal liability for such other person's acts as he would be if he had performed them himself."
Weights and Measures Act 1963 16(1)
