Premises licensing notifications

We are required to advertise any:

new Premises Licences
new Club Premises Certificates
variations to Premises Licences and Club Premises Certificates
reviews of Licences and Certificates

Representations can be made, by email or in writing, by the dates confirmed in each notice and should be based upon one or more of the four licensing objectives:

prevention of crime and disorder
public safety
prevention of public nuisance
protection of children from harm

There is legislation that means that your representation may be made public. The relevant legislation is:

The Licensing Act 2003 (Hearings) Regulations 2005;
Freedom of Information Act 2000, Data Protection Act 1998 and
Environmental Information Regulations 2004

The Licensing Act 2003 (Hearings) Regulations 2005

Under these regulations, we must send copies of all relevant representations to the Applicant.

The regulations also say that all hearings shall take place in public (which means that your representations will usually become public) but that we can exclude the public from all or part of a hearing where we consider that the public interest in so doing outweighs the public interest in the hearing, or that part of the hearing, taking place in public.

Freedom of Information Act 2000, Data Protection Act 1998 and Environmental Information Regulations 2004

These Acts and regulations contain further rights to access information held by the Licensing Authority. There are several exemptions that may apply. While it is unlikely that anyone would need to rely on this legislation to require access to your representations (since the provisions already referred to are extensive), you should be aware that this legislation could also apply to your representations and require the Licensing Authority to disclose them.

The Licensing Authority’s Approach

The legislation referred to creates a presumption in fairness to the Applicant and in the public interest of transparency and openness that your representations will be disclosed to the Applicant and the public.

We will not usually exclude or redact any information that is given to the Applicant. As a matter of fairness, there is a presumption that an Applicant should be fully aware of the details of the persons who has made representations in relation to the application.

We will attempt however to exclude or redact certain sensitive information from information that is available for the public but not information that is given to the Applicant. This applies to:

Your signature;
Your telephone number;
Your email address;
Your house number/name:
Your postcode;

We will not usually exclude or redact your name and address. We consider that it will generally be in the public interest to be transparent and open as to who made representations.

Can I request that my details are not disclosed?

We can decide to withhold more of your personal details (such as your name and address) and instead give only minimal details (such as your street name or general location within a street). However, we can only do so where the circumstances justify such action. We cannot do this in all cases. We cannot set out all the circumstances that may be relevant. One example may be that you consider that you or your family might suffer some detriment were the details disclosed. You must tell us why you feel that we should do this. If we decide that we cannot comply with your request, we will tell you and give you an opportunity to consider your position and/or withdraw your representation before we disclose it.
