The Licence
In 2003 the Government introduced a new Licensing Act which took effect from November 2005.
There are two licences required; one is a Premises Licence which details the list of licensable activities permitted by the Local Authority. This includes the sale of alcohol. The Premises Licence is held by Wadworth. The second licence is a Personal Licence and is required to allow you to sell alcohol.
All Premises Licenses require a Designated Premises Supervisor (DPS) to be nominated on the licence. The DPS is the person in charge of the day to day running of the business and must hold a Personal Licence. This person is normally our tenant.
