Thread Name: PEL: Licensing Reform?
Subject: RE: Licensing Reform?
The rule is going to be that a publican be able to have the drinks licence to cover entertainment which will have to be specified in advance. Any "performance" that isn't included in that will be illegal, even a single person.

It's all been talked back and forth in the PEL threads. The trouble is most people shrug it off and think it won't affect them, because they've got by in the past, and the authorities aren't stupid are they?

It will affect them, and the freedom for the authorities to turn a blind eye is in effect going to be knocked on the head - unless the legislation gets modified by MPs who have been put properly in the picture by us.FaxYourMP today please.
