The Gambling Act (2005) requires that all Licensing Authorities must publish a statement of the principles of licensing that they wish to apply when exercising their functions under the Act. This statement must be published at least every 3 years and is therefore due for review and implementation by January 2019.
The Gambling Act (2005) requires Licensing Authorities to consult on the statement of principles before publication.
The Corporate Director will be asked to approve the commencement of the consultation period.
