Article 68 Alcohol consumption in designated public places
Paragraph (2) applies if a constable reasonably believes that a person is, or has been, consuming intoxicating liquor in a designated public place or intends to consume intoxicating liquor in such a place.
The constable may require the person concerned—
not to consume in that place anything which is, or which the constable reasonably believes to be, intoxicating liquor;
to surrender anything in his possession which is, or which the constable reasonably believes to be, intoxicating liquor or a container for such liquor.
A constable may dispose of anything surrendered to him under paragraph (2) in such manner as he considers appropriate.
A person who fails without reasonable excuse to comply with a requirement imposed on him under paragraph (2) commits an offence and is liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 2 on the standard scale.
A constable who imposes a requirement on a person under paragraph (2) shall inform the person concerned that failing without reasonable excuse to comply with the requirement is an offence.
