Youth hostels allowed 24-hour drinking

Abstract
The Youth Hostel Association has announced that almost 100 of its sites have been awarded 24-hour alcohol licences.
Alan Grant, secretary of the National Organisation of Residents Associations (NORA) told the BBC that locals do have concerns: "Residents in many parts of the country already face problems with anti-social behaviour, late-night noise, vandalism and violence because of booze culture. I am sure the YHA acts responsibly but the problem occurs if a youth hostel which has been given an all-night licence changes hands."
