Licence fees will be increased, the plans say, so councils can "cover costs linked to enforcement, leaving premises to pay rather than the local taxpayer".

So a cafe serving no alcohol, not opening late but needing a Premises Licence to provide live music - is going to pay less?

And will schools also be paying more, when the enforcement costs of their Premises Licence are so small?

Why should any fee increase based on so-called enforcement costs and based on the premises which serve alcohol and open late, be paid by premises which do not?
