Mr Roger Gale (North Thanet, Conservative)
With this it will be convenient to discuss amendment No. 353, in
clause 72, page 42, line 25, at end insert—
'(3B) Where a person who has made representations has given notice that, for reasons of special circumstances including but not limited to language, disability or responsibility as a carer or as an employee, a hearing should be conducted other than in the normal manner for that authority, the licensing authority shall take reasonable steps to accommodate those special circumstances.'.
