DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe eighth edition of Licensing Practice and Procedure contains a practical account of the provisions of the Licensing Act 2003. The Act introduces a unified scheme for licensing the sale and supply of alcohol, the provision of regulated entertainment and the provision of late night refreshments. Personal licences, premises licences, club premises certificates and temporary event notices are introduced, and jurisdiction in respect of liquor licensing moves from the magistrates to the local authorities. Other features of the new regime include a dual system of premises licences and personal licences, and the relaxation of controls notably the removal of the general restriction of licensing hours, and the limited discretion of the new licensing authorities to refuse an application."
