Amended Late Night Levy Guidance issued

The Home Office has today reissued the Late Night Levy Guidance, amending that which was previously issued in 2012.

The covering details on the gov.uk website confirm: “Amended supporting guidance for licensing authorities on the late night levy. Provisions will be required in Regulations to formalise the intention that any decision to introduce a levy should be taken by the full council. These provisions will be reflected in a consolidation with amendments of the Local Authorities (Functions and Responsibilities) Regulations being prepared by the Department of Communities and Local Government, and to whom any queries should be addressed.”
