Change of schedules for Sunday alcohol sales

The Ministry of Tourism announced the change in the schedules for the sale of alcohol on Sundays, amending Article 1 of the Interministerial Agreement N. 1470.

The new schedules will be: For restaurants and cafes until 22h00, for fast food chains until 22h00, for banquet halls between 10h00 and 16h00, docks between 10h00 and 16h00 and establishments that provide complementary hosting services  until 22h00.

The last measure was justified by claiming a struggle against violence, since alcohol produced 8% of homicides in the country.
