Big Week in the Licensing Court

Big Week in the Licensing Court 

This week was the last week before the summer recess to get a licensing court hearing . On Wednesday we had two applications running in the District Court for clients; a shop seeking permission to sell wine and a restaurant seeking permission to sell wine, beer and spirits. Both were successful. The courts will be closed in August as usual, but will be open in September this year.

Licensing applications require a month's notice to the relevant notice parties, so plans would have to start now for any establishment seeking to obtain a license in September . Doyle & Company
