LICENCES AND LICENSING, ENGLAND AND WALES

These Regulations prescribe a number of matters relating to the introduction and administration of the late night levy (“the levy”). The framework for the levy is set out in Chapter 2 of Part 2 of the Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011 (“the 2011 Act”). This framework enables a licensing authority in England and Wales to introduce a late night levy in its area if it considers it desirable to raise revenue in relation to the costs of policing crime and disorder connected to the supply of alcohol in that area between midnight and 6am. If the levy is introduced, it is payable by holders of premises licences or club premises certificates which authorise the supply of alcohol at times beginning at or after midnight and ending at or before 6am (the licensing authority may determine the times but these must be the same each night). Section 126(2) of the 2011 Act defines such licences and certificates as relevant late night authorisations.
