    I am pretty sick of the limited information presented here for me to respond to, what's the point?
    "The Henson Hotel - Liquor license transfer"
    What does this mean?
    Are the transferring a liquor license to the Henson Hotel?
    or taking one away?

    If it's to take a license away then I object, that hotel is in a great location and now there are wonderful little food joints popping up all around it, plus it serves all the crowds from a very popular sports park, the Henson Park.

    Please include more information in this and future plans if you have an expectation of people making reasonable comments based on the information that you supply.

    If you follow the link, Craig Brown, titled: "Read more information" you will get all the information available on the matter, directly from the source.

    As I understand it, the free, voluntary and non-profit PlanningAlerts site collates information from various gov sources, and gives you links directly to each source, making it easier for you to be more involved in your community, and to direct your understanding and opinion more easily.

    It doesn't do all the work of interpreting and analysing the original resources for you and, to butcher an established metaphor, leads you to the water, but can't drink for you.

    If you would like the quality of the information to change, you'll ned to petition the source, in this case Marrickville Council, and not the messenger, a team of dedicated and hard-working volunteers providing you with this free service.

    If you feel you'd like to improve the service, they have a link for you to "get involved", rather than complaining from your armchair.

    :D

    And clicking the Link "read more" results in a blank page.

    Was this the intention?

    **this is not a submission, it is an explanatory note**

    Joe is right, this is a free, not for profit site that scrapes information and provides alerts. The reason it's not better info is because governments make it so hard to extra and share information about these applications easily.

    If you search the address at the OLGR site, it takes you here: http://www.olgr.nsw.gov.au/liquor_applications/docs/1-3081252203-Notice.pdf

    It looks to me like this is an application to change the licensee at the same premises.

    That is not a "blank page", but the ILGA application noticeboard search form.
    All you need to do is use a search term to find that specific liquor licence transfer application, like "The Henson Hotel" or if you're interested in your area, the suburb or postcode to find out about more.

    Melissa Brooks has done this for you, a volunteer, courteously helping you.

    Because each gov website is built differently, it is not possible to link to each piece of information, and when gov sites get updated (one or more new or updated gov site launches each week!) the method to dig the data out changes. Expecting PlanningAlerts, a voluntary site working hard to bring your community closer to you, to do all the hard lifting is a bit unfair. They are a few volunteers and could use your help, not complaints.

    As I said before, it is designed as an "alert" system, not a completely integrated government approach. Once the state and fed government agencies consolidate how data is stored and queried, sites like this will be able to provide you with more details directly, but until then, it's up to you to take active, not passive, responsibility in your role in the democratic process and petition your MPs to prioritise that consolidation of data.
