What must be advertised?

Section 26B of the Licensing Act 2003 required the licensing authority to advertise applications for:

• new premises licences

• variations of premises licences (except applications to vary the designated premises supervisors, insert the alternative condition and minor variations)

• provisional statements

• new club premises certificates

• variations of club premises certificates (except minor variations)

The advertisement is required to be on the authority’s web site, where the notice must remain for a period of 28 days from the day following the day on which the licensing authority received the application. Section 26C of the Licensing Act 2003 specifies the content of the notice.

The legislation also requires the applicant to advertise their application outside the premises for 28 days and once in a local newspaper. Advertisement of applications for minor variations by the applicant is only outside the premises for 10 days.
