What happens next
There's a 10 working day representation period from the date you apply. We'll consult with any statutory consultees that we need to. After this time well take account of any representations made.
If the variation won't have a negative effect on any of the licensing objectives of prevention of crime and disorder, public safety, prevention of public nuisance, and protection of children from harm we'll grant the licence. Where we think the change will have a negative effect we'll refuse the licence.
Tacit consent doesn't apply
Tacit consent doesn't apply to minor variation applications. You must have confirmation from us that the variations have been added to your licence.
