Temporary Event Notices

The sub-committee is scheduled to discuss temporary event notices, as a standing item. According to the agenda, when considering an objection to a TEN1 the council will:

  • Expect that any existing conditions will be maintained (where relevant) in circumstances where an event is to take place at a premises that has an existing authorisation.
  • Assess any history of complaints as a result of licensable activity that may or may not have been authorised by a TEN.
  • Consider the track record of the premises user
  • Consider any other control measures proposed to mitigate the objection

Licensing Sub-Committee Hearing Procedure

The sub-committee is scheduled to review the Licensing Sub-Committee Hearing Procedure. The procedure outlines the process for licensing sub-committee hearings under the Licensing Act 2003. It notes that hearings are normally held in public unless the sub-committee believes it not to be in the public interest to do so.

The procedure also states that only those responsible authorities2 and other persons who have made a relevant representation in writing at the consultation stage can register to speak at a subsequent hearing.


  1. A Temporary Event Notice (TEN) is a notification given to the licensing authority by an individual who wishes to hold a licensable activity on unlicensed premises for a temporary period. 

  2. Responsible authorities include the police, fire service, and environmental health department. They are statutory consultees in the licensing process and can make representations about applications.
