Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Licensing Act 2003 (Personal licences) Regulations 2005 (“the 2005 Regulations”) to give effect to new requirements relating to the application for the renewal of a personal licence in accordance with section 117 of the Licensing Act 2003.

Regulation 2(2) removes the requirement that an application for the renewal of a personal licence must be accompanied by a fee.

Regulation 2(3) has the effect of removing the requirement that an application for the renewal of a personal licence must be accompanied by two photographs of the applicant, a criminal conviction certificate, a criminal record certificate or the result of a subject access search, and a declaration relating to a conviction or the absence of a conviction for a relevant or foreign offence.

The form prescribed in the Schedule to these Regulations replaces the form prescribed in Schedule 2 to the 2005 Regulations (the form of the application for the renewal of a personal licence).

An impact assessment has not been prepared for this instrument as no impact on businesses, charities, voluntary bodies or the public sector is foreseen.
