FIXING MAXIMUM PRICES OF BEER TO WHICH THIS ORDER APPLIES

6. (1) Subject to the provisions of this order, the maximum
   price that may be charged for beer by the licensee of licensed
   premises for consumption on the premises shall be—
   (a) 8d. for 8½ oz provided that such price may be increased
   by 1d. for each oz in excess of 8½ oz.
   (b) Where the quantity of beer requested is less than 8½ oz:
   8d., provided that where such quantity is 5 oz or less:
   6d.

Provided that where the beer is served in a container filled
from the original bottle the maximum price of the drink shall
be 9d. irrespective of the quantity served.

(2) Where the beer is served in a lounge or dining room of
licensed premises the maximum price of the drink shall be
1s. 3d. irrespective of the quantity served.

7. Subject to the provisions of this order the maximum price
   that may be charged for beer by the holder of a conditional
   licence under the authority of that licence shall be 8d. irrespective of the quantity served, provided that where the beer
   is served in a container filled from the original bottle the
   maximum price shall be 9d. irrespective of the quantity served.

8. Unless the purchaser specifically requests less than 8½ oz
   of beer he shall be served with not less than 8½ oz except where
   the beer is served in the lounge or dining room, or is beer
   served from its original bottle, or is beer sold by the holder
   of a conditional licence under the authority of that licence.

9. Where the purchaser of beer requests the addition of
   any flavouring or diluting ingredient of a non-intoxicating
   nature to his drink, the provisions of this clause shall apply
   as if all the drink consisted of beer.

GENERAL

10. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing provisions
    of this order and subject to such conditions, if any, as it
    thinks fit, the Tribunal, on application by the licensee of any
    licensed premises or by the holder of a conditional licence,
    may authorise special maximum prices in respect of any
    drinks to which this order applies where special circumstances
    exist or for any reason extraordinary charges (freight or
    otherwise) are incurred by the applicant. Any authority given
    by the Tribunal under this clause may apply with respect
    to a particular drink or class of drinks or may relate generally
    to drinks to which this order applies sold by the applicant
    while the approval remains in force. Any authority given
    under this clause shall be exhibited in the manner prescribed
    by clause 11 hereof in respect of price orders.

11. For the purposes of this order liquor shall be deemed to
    be served in a lounge or a dining-room only if it is served
    to the purchaser by the licensee or his servant in the lounge
    or dining-room and not directly to the purchaser over a
    counter.

12. Every licensee of any licensed premises, and every
    holder of a conditional licence, shall keep a copy of this
    price order or a statement of the retail prices fixed thereby
    prominently displayed in every place in the licensed premises
    where drinks are sold or in every place of sale or disposal of
    liquor under the authority of the conditional licence (as the
    case may be) in such a position that customers may examine
    the price order or statement without having to ask for its
    production and without having to obtain permission to
    examine it.
