Commentary on Sections Part 9 - Alcohol Licensing Section 183 - Premises licence applications: antisocial behaviour reports
758.This section amends the Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005 requirements concerning a chief constable’s obligation to provide the Licensing Board with an antisocial behaviour report. The effect is that it is no longer necessary for the chief constable to provide a report in respect of every application. Instead, a report will only be required if the Licensing Board requests one. In addition the chief constable may chose to forward a report for the Board’s consideration.
