(3)Where an authority refuse an application for such a licence or revoke or vary such a licence they shall state their grounds for doing so in writing to the applicant, or, as the case may be, to the holder of the licence, and the applicant or holder may appeal to a magistrates’ court or, in Scotland, to the sheriff, against the refusal, revocation or variation.
