First of all, according to the ban on alcohol issued by the Ministry of Public Security and the Lvliang Municipal Public Security Bureau, all serving police officers and auxiliary staff are banned from drinking during working hours and specific time periods, including Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays through Fridays outside of legal holidays. The rule is not just for party cadres, but applies to all public officials.
However, party members and cadres are not allowed to drink during special posts, major missions, duty hours and other times outside the workday. For example, some public security departments stipulate that police officers cannot drink at night.
In addition, Party members and cadres are not allowed to drink with their management and service recipients at work. Private clubs or places of upscale dining, leisure, fitness, beauty care, entertainment, lodging and hospitality that are open only to a small number of people are also banned.
In short, whether party members and cadres are able to drink in the evening is subject to work regulations, but they are not allowed to drink under some special circumstances. At all times, they should avoid drinking on public **** occasions so as not to affect their work and image.
