The nightclub hours are being reviewed as most complaints come from the people about young people being rowdy early in the morning while coming out of the nightclub after closing at 5am.

This has been highlighted by Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka during the fijivillage Straight Talk with Vijay Narayan when questioned on why the nightclub hours are being reviewed when the police force is not doing their job to monitor crowded places and many young boys are seen loitering and robbing at night.

Rabuka says a lot of this is causing social problems as well.

When questioned on why are culprits not being taken into custody or taken in for questioning, he says they are being taken in and the police have been conducting foot and mobile patrol.

Rabuka says reviewing the nightclub hours will also affect the income of the owners and the workers' hours.

The Prime Minister says they will have to look at all these factors that the authority will be conducting as they continue to review and send their recommendations to the authorities.

There will be a public consultation at Suvavou House from 10am to mid-day today on the proposed review of the nightclub hours.
