EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend a number of the Schedules to both the Licensing Act 2003 (Personal licences) Regulations 2005 (S.I. 2005/41) and the Licensing Act 2003 (Premises licences and club premises certificates) Regulations 2005 (S.I. 2005/42). The forms prescribed in those Schedules set out the detailed requirements relating to applications and notices given or made under Part 3 and Part 6 of the Licensing Act 2003 (c. 17).

These Regulations substitute new forms for those applications and notices, with an updated list of documents to evidence an individual’s entitlement to work in the United Kingdom. The new forms also provide for the option of evidencing an individual’s entitlement to work using the Home Office online right to work checking service.

The form prescribed in Schedule 1 to these Regulations replaces the form prescribed in Schedule 1 to the Licensing Act 2003 (Personal licences) Regulations 2005 (the form of the application for a personal licence).

The form prescribed in Schedule 2 to these Regulations replaces the form prescribed in Schedule 2 to the Licensing Act 2003 (Premises licences and club premises certificates) Regulations 2005 (the form of the application for a premises licence).

The form prescribed in Schedule 3 to these Regulations replaces the form prescribed in Schedule 6 to the Licensing Act 2003 (Premises licences and club premises certificates) Regulations 2005 (the form of the application to transfer a premises licence).

The form prescribed in Schedule 4 to these Regulations replaces the form prescribed in Schedule 7 to the Licensing Act 2003 (Premises licences and club premises certificates) Regulations 2005 (the form of an interim authority notice).

An impact assessment has not been prepared for this instrument as no impact on businesses, charities, voluntary bodies or the public sector is foreseen.
