ABLE BC Member Webinar September 28: LCRB Minors as Agents Program – What You Need to Know
Dear ABLE BC members and industry colleagues,
Preventing the sale of liquor and cannabis to minors is a key priority for the Liquor and Cannabis Regulation Branch (LCRB). The Minors as Agents Program (MAP) is the LCRB’s tool for monitoring licensees’ compliance with the prohibition against selling of liquor and cannabis to minors.
While we share government’s goal of keeping controlled substances out of the hands of minors, industry’s MAP compliance rate for the first quarter of 2023 was only 81 per cent. This webinar will provide a better understanding of due diligent practices to help you ace a MAP visit.
Please join senior officials from the LCRB— Ian Brown, Deputy General Manager and Executive Director, Compliance and Enforcement, and Maria Caduhada, Manager, Dispute Resolution and Branch Registrar—for a discussion of the MAP initiative. Ian will explain the program and clarify what minor agents do during an inspection. Maria will offer an overview of enforcement hearings and provide insight into the essentials of an effective due diligence defence.
We will also be joined by an expert licensing consultant who will review due diligence resources for your business.
