MANDATORY minimum sentences for intoxicated assaults, earlier closing times for bottle shops and 1.30am lock-outs are set to be enforced this weekend in Sydney.

The O'Farrell government successfully had legislation passed on Thursday as part of its campaign to clamp down on street violence.

The bills passed the upper house on Thursday night in line with the government's wishes to have them become law by the weekend.

The Greens and independent MP Alex Greenwich did not support the proposals but with support from the opposition, the government had the numbers in the upper house.

Several Labor MPs, including deputy leader Linda Burney, said they were opposed to mandatory minimum sentences, with leader John Robertson adding that the party would back the bill but had "considerable reservations."

Premier Barry O'Farrell said the laws would "make our streets safer."
