The Council is keen to fully understand the impact the licensed entertainment and hospitality industry has on local communities through sales of alcohol, regulated entertainment and sales of hot food and drink, and licensed gambling establishments.

Adoption of a House to House Collection Policy
The Council receives applications from a number of organisations each year and the Council's Licensing Board considers the issuing of permits to authorise these collections. The Council does not have to adopt a policy in relation to the application process for House to House Collection Permits, and historically has not had a policy in place. However, it is now considered that having a clear and transparent policy will assist applicants to understand the process of applying for a licence and the information required, as well as enabling more consistent decision making by the Council.

Starts: 3 June 2019
Ends: 28 July 2019
Amendment to the General Enforcement Policy
The Council's current General Enforcement Policy was introduced in 2014/15, and has been amended a number of times since. The Council has now decided that it is the right time to formally review and redraft the policy and seek the views of local people, businesses and other interested parties on the revised policy.
