The report also makes the following specific recommendation:

(vi) Section 177, where it relates to the provision of live music, should be deleted from the Act and Schedule 1 Part 2 – Exemptions, should have a new Paragraph 7(a) inserted which should read:

"The provision of entertainment consisting of the performance of unamplified live music is not to be regarded as the provision of regulated entertainment for the purposes of this Act."

I am not prepared to take bets on the likelihood of that being implemented. After all musicians involved in such activities attract undesirable elements to the area.
