Commentary on Sections Part 1.Licensing Section 17: Restaurants and guest houses: notice displaying licence conditions
This section amends Article 51 of the Licensing Order (conditions as to sale etc. in guest houses and restaurants). It adds a new Article 51(4A) which requires a restaurant, and a guest house which also has a restaurant, to display a notice detailing the conditions in relation to the sale and consumption of intoxicating liquor in the premises.
Subsection (3) adds an offence (punishable by a fine up to £1,000) for not displaying a notice and (4) makes consequential amendments to Part 1 of Schedule 10A (penalty points for offences punishable with level 3 fine) to take account of the introduction of the new paragraph.
