Premises Licence Operating Schedules

Your application for a premises licence or a club premises certificate under the Licensing Act 2003 for alcohol and entertainment needs to include an operating schedule.
 
This information is also available in PDF format, in our Guidance Booklet for Applicants to download.

A Premises Licence Operating Schedule Must Contain:

  • The relevant licensable activities to take place on the premises
  • The times when the proposed activities are to take place, including the times for each day of the week, and if they will change throughout the year
  • Any other times when the premises are to be open to the public
  • The name and address of the person who is the Designated Premises Supervisor (DPS)
  • The steps the licensee has taken to promote the licensing objectives

A Club Certificate Operating Schedule Must Contain:

  • The recognised club activities that the application relates to
  • The times that the recognised club activities take place
  • Any other times when the premises will be open to members and their guests
  • The activities that include the supply of alcohol, whether for consumption on the premises, off the premises or both
  • How the licensing objectives will be promoted

Examples of How You Can Promote Licensing Objectives:

  • CCTV installed and maintained on the premises
  • Shatterproof drinking vessels
  • Challenge 21 or similar ID procedure
  • Health and Safety Policy
  • Fire information
  • An 'ask patrons to leave quietly' sign

This information is essential and will enable the Responsible Authorities to identify measures to ensure that the licensing objectives are being met.
