Clause 49 - Supplementary provision about interim authority notices
Licensing Bill [Lords]
9:45 am
Mr Malcolm Moss (North East Cambridgeshire, Conservative)
A designated premises supervisor will have to be reappointed. Earlier we covered the fact that there must be a DPS, and the Bill proposes a heavy fine in that respect. It is self-evident that people will be known to each other. If a big chain is involved, it is obvious that the chain itself will apply for a notice and the transition will be almost seamless. I fail to see why a heavy fine is proposed.
