Licensing
Since the introduction in 2005 of the new Licensing Act,
all premises where alcohol is supplied, entertainment is provided
or hot food is sold after 11pm, must obtain a premises licence.
The new act is primarily centred on public order and the
prevention of crime. Private individuals, local businesses
and local authorities now have the right to object to a premises
licence, which could lead to your licence not being granted,
or an existing license being revoked. |

Our Licensing Team can assist you with all of your licensing requirements,
from routine to more complex matters. We handle licensing applications,
objections and appeals for a range of clients. The team can help
with: ·
- Personal and premises licences
- Bookmakers’ permits and betting office licences
- Gaming
Any business that operates in the entertainment and leisure industry
needs to ensure it has the correct licences in place. As a business
owner, you should therefore be aware of the potential consequences
and financial costs of getting the licensing application process
wrong.
We can advise you on all aspects of licensing from the initial
stages of making an application to ongoing operational issues. To
help you manage your business and keep up to date on licensing law
we can provide basic legal training and updates.
