Allow pubs and restaurants to trade after 10pm
Remove the 10pm curfew for pubs and restaurants and allow them to continue trading (and therefore bringing in revenue) but do not allow any new guests to be admitted after 10pm.
The guests that have been there all evening therefore stay in the same place for longer, reducing the temptation to go to an off-licence and continue drinking elsewhere.

Why the contribution is important
Hospitality establishments are able to continue bringing in revenue and it should reduce the likelihood of people going back to a friend's house. If they have already been in the venue earlier in the evening it would make no difference if they stayed until midnight instead of encouraging people to wander around in groups.
