Section 19: Notice of revocation, suspension or compulsory variation
Section 19 sets out the administrative steps a council must take when it intends to revoke, suspend or compulsorily vary a pavement café licence. It must notify the licence holder of its intentions in this regard and state the grounds for the proposed revocation, suspension or variation. The licence holder will have an opportunity to make representations to the council, within a specified period, before a final decision is taken. In most instances this period will be at least 21 days. If considered necessary in the public interest a council may decide to revoke, suspend or vary a licence even though no notification has been given.
