Measures to stop "rivers of grog" flowing into Aboriginal communities and town camps have been extended in a bid to reduce alcohol-related violence in a crime-troubled territory.
The Northern Territory government on Thursday released its plan to tackle problem drinking, detailing efforts to ensure community safety by addressing alcohol-related harms.
The plan extended total alcohol bans in Aboriginal town camps and communities beyond 2027 after the restrictions were set to expire in January.
The restrictions make it illegal to bring in, possess, consume, sell or supply alcohol in remote Aboriginal communities, town camps and outstations.
"We are making sure that the rivers of grog don't flow again into town camps to reduce alcohol-related violence and crime and to improve community safety and wellbeing," Alcohol Policy Minister Steve Edgington said in a statement.
