The Government invites views and evidence to inform the development of a modern, proportionate and enabling licensing system. This call for evidence builds on the Licensing Taskforce recommendations and the Government’s response[1] and supports the Government’s commitment to reduce regulatory burdens by 25% by the end of this Parliament[2]. This Call for Evidence focuses on the ‘on trade’ in relation to alcohol sales, for example pubs, restaurants and nightclubs, and on all entertainment licensed under the Licensing Act 2003.

Who Should Respond

·       Licensed businesses and trade bodies

·       Local authorities and licensing officers

·       Cultural and community organisations

·       Residents’ advocacy groups

·       Legal, planning and regulatory professionals
