We are consulting on both our draft Statements of Licensing and Gambling Policies.
Statement of Licensing Policy 2024-2029
The Licensing Act 2003 requires that the Council, acting as the Licensing Authority, prepare, consult on and publish a Statement of Licensing Policy to be published every five years, setting out the policies the Council will generally apply to promote the four licensing objectives when making decisions on applications under the Act.
Statement on Gambling Policy 2024-2027
The Gambling Act 2005 requires that the Council, acting as the Licensing Authority to prepare, consult on and publish a Statement of Gambling Policy every three years, setting out how the Authority will manage the licensing of local gambling premises.
These will be Westmorland and Furness Council’s first Statement of Licensing Policy and Statement of Gambling Policy and once adopted will be in force from 1 April 2024.
