Section 117 – Application for grant or renewal of personal licenceSection 118 – Individual permitted to hold only one personal licenceSection 119 – Licence continued pending renewal
194.These sections set out the steps an individual must take to apply for the grant or renewal of a personal licence. An application for the grant of a personal licence must be made, ordinarily, to the authority for the area in which the applicant is normally resident. Applications for renewal are to be made to the licensing authority which originally granted the licence.
195.All applications must be made in the prescribed form and accompanied by the prescribed fee, information and documents. Applications for renewal can only be lodged within a two-month period beginning three months before the licence’s expiry. If the licence expires before the application for renewal has been determined by the licensing authority, the licence remains in effect until a decision is made.
196.Only one licence can be held by a single individual at any one time.
