GUEST,ET	Licensing Bill - How will it work ? (331* d)	RE: Licensing Bill - How will it work ?	17 Jan 04
Just reviving this a bit - this so called deregulation bill is very complicated and will not now be brought in until autumn 2005. On the DCMS website is a simplified deinition of public entertainment - it is a complete lie. See their site and FAQ. It talks about "for commercial gain". The Act says nothing of the sort. This is what the web site says Frequently Asked Questions > How do you define public entertainment? In broad terms, public entertainment is music or dancing, or entertainment of a like kind, which is presented publicly for commercial purposes or for gain. Yes pubs need qualified people on the premises at all times but who but an idiot is going to get qualified as a "minder" and not want a pub of his/her own. The DCMS has a flyer it asks to be distributed to the trade. It is about 3 pages long so I will copy it onto another section of this formum. If you find it- print it and give it to your local land lord. There may be a pint in it for you?
