HC Deb 03 November 1976 vol 918 c1552

Lords Amendment: No. 20, in page 23, line 42, at end insert "by a licensing board".

Mr. Millan

I beg to move, That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said amendment.

This amendment makes it clear that the limit of four occasional permissions a year for a voluntary organisation, to allow it to sell alcohol at a function outwith licensed premises, is a limit of four permissions from one licensing board. Some voluntary organisations are national organisations and they may employ different licensing boards. It is impossible to check the number of applications which may have been made in those different areas. The amendment makes this clearer.

Question put and agreed to.
