Regulation 12 Establishing the hearing or inquiryI1

The appointed person must set a date for the hearing or inquiry (“the relevant date”).

The appointed person must, at least 6 weeks before the relevant date, give notice of the relevant date to the appellant, the Licensing Authority and any person who has made representations concerning the appeal.

The Licensing Authority must, at least 3 weeks before the relevant date, publish notice of the hearing or inquiry in such manner as the Licensing Authority thinks will be most effective to bring it to the attention of any persons likely to be interested in it.

If the relevant date is changed the procedure in paragraphs (2) and (3) must be repeated.
