Thread Name: PELs: Exemptions?
Subject: RE: PELs: Exemptions?
This wretched bill seems to have got through the House of Lords reatively unscaithed. There is an amendment about trying to protect those who work in pubs from working 24 hours a day 9 days a wekk and thats about it.    Remaining includes "premises includes any place....to a field is a premise" and music includes singing and musical instruments or any combination of both.

Its ok having petitions etc and much protest from musicians but if you talk about this to memembers of the public they are generally horrified. How can we spread our concerns further?
