It remains vital that our MPs are informed of exactly what passing this Bill will mean for live music. If the Government gamble pays off and more than the current figure of 5% of licensed premises take up the entertainment element, this will be terrible in principle but may not prove be too bad in practice.

However, if licensees do not take up the entertainment element, it will be a disaster. But is it a gamble worth taking, given that there is so little to win and so much to lose?
