2012 CHAPTER 2
Commentary on Sections
Section 1: Licence review for live music entertainment
16.Section 1 amends section 177 of the 2003 Act, which currently applies to dancing and live music in small premises, so that it applies only to dancing.
17.This section also adds a new section 177A to the 2003 Act dealing with live music taking place in premises authorised to be used for the supply of alcohol for consumption on the premises. Its effect is that conditions in a premises licence or club premises certificate relating to live music will not have effect where the requirements set out in section 177A(1)(a) to (c) are satisfied. However, on a review of the premises licence or club premises certificate, a condition relating to live music may be made effective by altering it to include a statement that section 177A does not apply. In addition, at a review a licensing authority may add a condition relating to live music as if the live music were regulated entertainment authorised by the licence or certificate.
18.Section 177A(5) contains a list of the provisions in the 2003 Act under which conditions to which section 177A applies may be included in, or added to, a premises licence or club premises certificate.
