Councillors asked how licensees decide if a customer has had too much to drink.
Shropshire councillors asked how licensees decide if a customer has had too much to drink when they discussed a report at a meeting on Wednesday, and were told that it is a matter of judgement.
"It is a question of the responsibility of licensees for drunk people," said Ms Beever at the meeting of the strategic licensing committee."The report is outlining their responsibilities and where they end." "It is a real judgement call for licensees whether to serve people or not. There is no legal definition," she continued.
Ms Beever said it's a real judgement call on the evening. Some people can have two glasses of wine and be drunk while others can have a lot more than that and be quite reasonable.
