It also provides for applications to be made by members of an organisation in addition to its officers; it reduces from one month to twenty-one days the period of notice which must be given of an application; and it requires the licensing justices to give written reasons for requiring the personal attendance of an applicant if he had been granted an occasional permission in the last year.",
