It’s becoming easier to order alcohol online, with fewer checks being conducted. 

New research from Alcohol Healthwatch suggests 73% of orders are being delivered without ID being checked, and 49% were contactless deliveries. 

In some instances, it’s arriving on doorsteps within 17 minutes. 

CEO Andrew Galloway told Mike Hosking that the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012 was developed for a brick-and-mortar style arrangement. 

He says that New Zealand has high levels of harm as a result of alcohol, and so the regulations need to be adjusted to better suit online orders.
