Thread Name: Licensing Bill - How will it work ?
Subject: RE: Licensing Bill - How will it work ?
Why are WE still hung-up on noise - especially those who welcome the Act - when the the Act itself isn't?

For can someone please explain to me why if noise from music is such a problem and can only be dealt with by the blanket entertainment licensing contained in this Act - why there is a Government amendment that does not allow any licensing conditions based on this objective of the Act i.e noise - to take effect?

Are those residents suffering from noisy (usually already licensed)premises - who are under the impression that the Act is going to help them combat this noise - actually aware that the Government have given them this amendment?
