The applicant and premises will then be subject to an inspection by officers from the health and safety team and by the local fire and police authority (as deemed appropriate).

A public notice is also sent to the applicant to display on the window or door of the premises, for the public to easily view for a period of 28 days, which allows them to make any observations they may have towards the application.

If the fire, police and safety officers are satisfied with the premises the licence is issued with conditions attached and the applicant can trade.
