Without prejudice to the power to transfer a licence in suspense in the cases mentioned in section 8 of this Act, if licensing justices are satisfied, with respect to a licence in suspense, that any person other than the holder has an interest in it or that the holder has no interest in it, they shall, on an application by any person appearing to them to have such an interest, transfer the licence to the person or persons appearing to them to have such an interest.
