1
An application for the cancellation of a licence under this Act may be made by any person at any time to the clerk to the licensing authority.

Any such application shall be made in the prescribed form and manner and shall be accompanied by two copies of a statement of the grounds on which the application is made.
3
On receipt of such an application, the clerk to the licensing authority shall submit it to one member of the authority for consideration by him.
4
If that member, after considering the application, is of the opinion that—
a
further consideration of the matters referred to in the statement accompanying the application is unnecessary or inexpedient before the time when the renewal of the licence falls to be considered, or
b
the licensing authority would be required by virtue of paragraph 41 of this Schedule to refuse the application,
he shall cause notice in writing to be given to the applicant that the application is refused, without prejudice to the raising of the same matters by way of objection to a renewal of the licence.
5
In any other case, the member of the licensing authority to whom the application is submitted shall refer it to the licensing authority.
