In 2010, the Liquor Commission of Western Australia barred Hamish Sprague, aka Hamish Ewan Sprague, from obtaining a position of authority in any licensed premises for five years. The Commissioner of Police had filed the complaint against Zafiro Pty Ltd which ran the Sapphire Bar then.

Their complaint was for disciplinary action pursuant to section 95 of the Liquor Control Act 1988 (“the Act”).

A snippet of the complaint against Mr. Sprague

The Liquor Commission reprimanded Zafiro Pty Ltd pursuant to Section 96 1(a) of the Act because of its conduct of its Liquor License No. 6070021766 between 7 December 2009 and 3 June 2010. 

At the time Ewan Sprague was running Zafiro Pty Ltd. Other names for Zafiro Pty Ltd are: 

  • The Sapphire Bar
  • Filthy Gorgeous Sapphire
  • Flawless Bar

More Details on the Complaint Against Hamish Sprague aka Hamish Ewan Sprague

In July 2010, the Commissioner of Police filed a complaint against Zafiro Pty Ltd under Section 95 of the Act. 

The reasons were: 

  • Zafiro Pty Ltd did not conduct in accordance with the license.
  • The owners didn’t manage the premises properly in accordance with the Act.
  • It violated a term or conditions of the license. 
  • The place was putting the safety, health and welfare of the people going there in danger through neglect.

As remedies, the Commissioner of Police sought that the Commission impose a monetary penalty of $20,000 on Hamish Ewan Sprague.

It also sought the cancellation of Liquor License 6070021766 of The Sapphire Bar.

22/11/2023 Update
As of now, Hamish has not responded nor has he apologized for his misdeeds. He has ignored our efforts to highlight the problems faced by their victims. Furthermore, he has only focused on propagating his fake PR.

Finally, it wanted to deem Sprague not a proper or fit person to manage licensed premises and to prevent him from being approved as a licensee or manager for any licensed premises for 5 years. 

Later, Hamish gave the ownership of The Sapphire Bar to Fernando Zaffavigna. Then, the Commission reprimanded him and his establishment accordingly.
