New posters warning young people of the risks of using fake ID and guidance to help door staff and those selling alcohol to spot false documents and know what to do once they have confiscated them, have been published by the Home Office today.
Home Office Minister for Crime Prevention James Brokenshire said:
"Selling alcohol to underage people can have serious consequences for them and for businesses and can lead to premises being shut down. We know the majority of premises are very responsible but many have told us that they are often unsure of how to deal with the use of fake or borrowed ID.
"The government recently introduced new measures to tackle premises that persistently sell alcohol to children in the Police Reform and Social Responsibility Bill, but we also recognise that the misuse of ID can be problematic for businesses.
