concerning the Licensing Act 2003
Dear Network
Steve Heap of FAE rang me today, further to my enqiries over live music,
private parties and Licensing.
Steve has been sitting on the Live Music Forum and the results of that
investigation are due to be published in July
Preempting this, however , the MU has posted a "comprehensive report and outline of Union policy on the Licensing
Act 2003 in advance of the publication of the Live Music Forum’s Report (LMF)
into the legislation" on it's website..
< http://www.musiciansunion.org.uk/site/cms/v4_newsArticleView.asp?article=716
>
Hamish Birchall has now left the MU and his summary (first bulletined in
2003) Steve informs me is now seriously out of date. I have therefore removed it
from the Bulletinboard page on the SEFAN website.

Steve agreed that the advice
from Susi Mulligan, Chairman, Wolds Collective is pretty sound (apart
from using "PEL" - which he says
no longer exists. That's
actually called a "Premises Licence" these days).
He did however, suggest that we should advise all private
enquirers to give notice to their Local Authority of any musical event where
alcohol is served, and let the Local (or District ) Council rule on the
need to apply for a TENs or not.
all the best
