Y2K solved in Britain: All-Night 2000 Pub Session?

LONDON (Reuters) - Britons may be allowed to celebrate the coming of
the year 2000 with an unprecedented all-night session in the pub, the
government said Monday.

The Home Office (interior ministry) said it proposed to relax the tight
rules on licensing hours which until now have meant landlords calling
"Time" shortly after the singing of "Auld Lang Syne" at midnight on
New Year's Eve.

One possibility was to allow carousing to continue until four o'clock
in the morning; the other to allow pubs to stay open until 11 am --
opening time on January 1.

"The Government's preferred option is an all-night relaxation of
licensing hours on New Year's Eve," the ministry said in a statement,
adding any change will not take effect until the end of 1999.
