    What is the Licensing Act?

    From theatres to restaurants – alcohol sales play a huge part across numerous business sectors. However, only employers with the right paperwork are allowed to sell or supply it on their premises. The Licensing Act is a law that regulates the sale of alcohol, late-night refreshments, and entertainment. The Act isn’t just for outlining the rules on permits. It also promotes duties towards managing the aftermath of alcohol overconsumption.
