At the moment the reliance has been placed on staff of the premises to deal with as the police would have no powers.
That's not what I understood.
I took that from him saying that there would be no legal requirement or something similar but could have been wrong on that. Hopefully you're correct and the business owners would have the protection of the law of they told someone their requirements on premises. I can see some businesses carrying on the 'table service' model as they will attract customers that don't want to be in crowded bars.
