Quoting David Bean from 16:47, 6th Dec 2007
I remember we used to talk of these every now and again as being the strictest kind of ban that can be imposed upon a patron of the Union, with a claim that it is in some way legally enforceable. I was trying to establish whether these could be imposed by on-licensed premises only, or whether they (or something similar) could be also be imposed by off-licensed premises. However, a simple Google search for the expression "licensee ban" reveals only nine results, two of which were from old threads here, with the only other relevant one coming from the Imperial College Union, and having no additional detail. This leads me to believe either that the term is incorrect, or that such a ban doesn't really exist. Can anyone clarify this and, if so, could they mention whether there are any substantial differences between Scots and English law on the matter?

That's great so far - thanks to Gealle in particular - but if you go back to what was being talked about in the earlier thread I found - http://www.thesinner.net/messageboard-v ... 313&page=2 (Director of Services' post, so presumably that would have been Bonnie) actually looks less interesting than the other one referenced on Google, except that thread appears to have been deleted - it still leaves unanswered questions.
Please do not attempt to buy or consume alcohol if you are underage.
I don't want to sound like a real nag, but quite frankly it is illegal and a disciplinary offense (meaning you risk losing your membership to the Students' Association and can be banned from the building [forever!] for doing it). If you try it in other pubs, they may also impose a licensee ban, again meaning it is a criminal offense to ever enter the premises again. Harsh.....but completely true. Most larger licensed premises will check ID before you even enter the building, nevermind get near the bar.

'Lately' I've been at work and have had little interest in St Andrean student politics, and certainly none whatsoever in anyone operating before my time as a sabb. Any comments I've made about personalities before then were made purely in context, and based on my own memories of those periods; if anyone thinks I've been at all mistaken I'd be happy to listen to alternative views, but to say that I've been 'going off on a tangent' about anyone at all in particular would seem to be pretty stupid, and I think I (like everyone else) probably have the right to post about whatever the hell I like, regardless of whose idea it was. I do recall a lot of rather novel ideas - such as that the SSC 'cannot comment on staffing matters' and that societies 'cannot hold meetings in alternative venues unless the Association cannot accommodate them' - which were both false and originated from a particular source, so I could be forgiven for assuming that something else that originated from the time in question and appears to have been made up might have come from the same source.
Unless, of course, anyone can answer my question definitively and point to a genuine legal basis for this kind of ban, in which case the point is moot.
