A referendum concerning introducing prohibition in New South Wales was put to voters on 1 September 1928.
Background
Although 6 o'clock closing was introduced as a temporary measure, the government brought in extensions and discussed putting the matter to a referendum. In 1923, however, without testing the matter by a popular vote, the Fuller Nationalist government enacted 6 pm as the closing time.[1]
The question
The question to be voted on was whether "prohibition, with compensation, shall come into force throughout New South Wales".[2]
Results
The referendum overwhelmingly rejected the introduction of prohibition.
