COMMENTARY ON SECTIONS General Section 33 – Notification of change of name or address.
82.This section places a duty on the holder of a premises licence to notify the licensing authority of any change of name or address of the premises licence holder or of the designated premises supervisor (unless the designated premises supervisor has already done so in accordance with subsection (4)). Such notification of a change of the licence holder’s name or address or that of the designated premises supervisor must be accompanied by the licence (unless that is impracticable, when a statement must be provided) and by any fee that may have been prescribed. Notification of a change of the designated premises supervisor’s name or address may be made by the designated premises supervisor under subsection (4) (in which case he must notify the licence holder). Failure to provide the required notifications is an offence.
