Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Gambling Act 2005 (Review of Premises Licences) (Scotland) Regulations 2007 (“the principal Regulations”).

The principal Regulations require licensing authorities to give notice of their intention to conduct a premises licence review (“a review”) to responsible authorities, and make provision where an authority fails to give proper notice of such a review. However, section 200(3)(a) of the Gambling Act 2005 only requires licensing authorities to give notice of their intention to conduct a review to the premises licence holder; it does not require such notice to be given to responsible authorities.

These Regulations remove the requirement for licensing authorities to notify responsible authorities of their intention to hold a review, and the related provisions concerning failure to give proper notice. The Regulations also make a consequential change to the heading to Schedule 3 to the principal Regulations (in which the prescribed form of the notice is set out).
