Find out about liquor licence enforcement actions

Liquor licensees, servers, managers and staff must operate their establishments following:

• the Yukon Liquor Act;
• Yukon liquor regulations; and
• Yukon Liquor Board policies.

The Yukon Liquor Board policy outlines the range of enforcement options available to Yukon Liquor Corporation's Licensing and Compliance Inspectors. These options are listed in tab 15 of the Yukon Liquor Board policies, and vary depending on the specifics of each case and the offence.
