- Draft legislation
This is a draft item of legislation. This draft has since been made as a UK Statutory Instrument: The Local Authorities (Alcohol Disorder Zones) Regulations 2008 No. 1430
16.—(1) A local authority shall, in accordance with this regulation, score each set of premises in an alcohol disorder zone in respect of which a licence holder is licensed or authorised, except premises in respect of which the licence holder is entitled to an exemption under regulation 12.
(2) A score shall be given for each of the following two criteria—
(a)Premises’ rateable value; and
(b)hours of opening during the service period.
(3) In scoring premises against each criterion, the local authority shall have regard to the non-baseline services that will need to be provided in or in connection with the alcohol disorder zone in immediate response to activities in those premises.
(4) The total score for each set of premises will determine the charge for those premises, whereby, subject to paragraph (6) and to any discounts granted in accordance with regulation 13, a higher charge shall be imposed on premises requiring a higher level of non-baseline services to be provided in or in connection with the alcohol disorder zone.
(5) For the purposes of calculating the total score, a local authority may, in respect of all premises in an alcohol disorder zone in respect of which a licence holder is licensed or authorised, give more or less weight to either of the two scores calculated under paragraph (2) and may add or multiply together those scores, as weighted.
(6) A local authority may use different weighting or add or multiply scores differently for different descriptions of premises, provided that all premises of the same description have their scores calculated in the same way.
(7) A local authority may create bands of total scores, whereby each premises within a band will be subject to the same charge.
