5(1)A district council may at any time revoke a street trading licence if they consider—E+W
(a)that, owing to circumstances which have arisen since the grant or renewal of the licence, there is not enough space in the street for the licence-holder to engage in the trading permitted by the licence without causing undue interference or inconvenience to persons using the street;
(b)that the licence-holder is unsuitable to hold the licence by reason of having been convicted of an offence or for any other reason;
(c)that, since the grant or renewal of the licence, the licence-holder has persistently refused or neglected to pay fees due to the council for it or charges due to them under paragraph 9(6) below for services rendered by them to him in his capacity as licence-holder; or
(d)that, since the grant or renewal of the licence, the licence-holder has without reasonable excuse failed to avail himself of the licence to a reasonable extent.
(2)If the council consider that they have ground for revoking a licence by virtue of sub-paragraph (1)(a) or (d) above, they may, instead of revoking it, vary its principal terms—
(a)by reducing the number of days or the period in any one day during which the licence-holder is permitted to trade; or
(b)by restricting the descriptions of goods in which he is permitted to trade.
(3)A licence-holder may at any time surrender his licence to the council and it shall then cease to be valid.
