Minutes:
The Committee considered a report regarding the changes to the Licensing Act 2003 brought about as a result of the Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011 and changes to the statutory guidance to local authorities issued under section 182 of the 2003 Act.
RESOLVED
(a) That the content of the report in relation to the legislative changes be noted;
(b) That the power to act on behalf of the Licensing Authority in its role as a responsible authority under the 2003 Act be delegated to the Consumer Protection and Investigations Manager, in order to ensure the proper separation between the Licensing Authority as a decision-maker under the 2003 Act and the Licensing Authority as a ‘responsible authority.’
