The Authority erred in relying on M's evidence of the 22 July transaction because his prior recantation and lack of corroboration required a more demanding assessment of proof; only two sales to minors were satisfactorily proven, and cancellation of the off-licence and the manager's certificate was disproportionate. The Court set aside the Authority's decisions, substituted a 28 day suspension of the off-licence and a four month suspension of the manager's certificate, and ordered renewal of the off-licence subject to conditions to be determined.
