Richard P, what does your local licensing policy look like?

How about everyone else? Do you know how your officers will view the new exemptions like those for incidental live and recorded music etc - or will they prevent Morris if one of the musicians has an amplified instrument? The list of questions is pretty endless - the answers to them remain more than a little unclear.

I agree that it would certainly be helpful for us to pool these experiences here and for us all to get involved in the local public consultation processes, and quickly.
