Full variation

Adding additional licensable activities to the scope of the licence
Changing permitted times for existing activities or opening hours
Adding new conditions, or amending or removing conditions on the current licence

Publicise your application

All applications must be advertised so that local residents and businesses can review your proposals and make comments (representations).

There are two ways in which you must advertise your premises licence notice by:

displaying a statutory notice at your premises for 28 consecutive days, starting on the day after you submitted your application - this notice must be printed on blue paper and be displayed clearly at all times
