Doncaster door staff confiscate passports and driving licences in crackdown on underage drinking
Passports and driving licences are being confiscated by Doncaster door staff in a bid to tackle underage drinking.
South Yorkshire Police issued a warning today that door staff are confiscating forms of ID used fraudulently by underage customers trying to get into pubs and clubs.
The force said: “The door staff have a responsibility to confiscate any form of ID presented to them which does not belong to the individual presenting it as proof of age, or is a fake ID.
“The driving licences and passports will then be collected by the liquor licensing enforcement officer and brought to the police station where they are placed in envelopes and returned to the issuing office.“To replace a driving licence it will cost you £20 plus new photos and for a replacement passport the current cost is £75.50 plus supporting documents and new photos.”
