Personal Licences Renewal

Personal Licences Renewal
Anyone with Personal Licences expiring on or after 1st April 2015 will now not need to apply for Renewal, the Home Office has now confirmed (27th March 2015) under the new Deregulation Act 2015.

The announcement brings to an end a year of uncertainty as to whether any Personal Licences would need to be renewed after April 2015 and when the actual Order would come into force.

The requirement to report lost or stolen Personal Licences to the Police before applying for a duplicate Personal Licence from the Council will also be abolished with effect from 26th May 2015.

Lastly, and more importantly for many of you, the Deregulation Act 2015 also increases the number of Temporary Event Notices which can be held at a single premises per year from 12 to 15 from 1st January 2016.

Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any queries.
