COMMENTARY ON SECTIONS PART 5: Permitted temporary activities. Section 107 - Counter notice where permitted limits exceeded
177.Subsection (1) requires a licensing authority to issue a counter-notice on receipt of a temporary event notice where
	the premises user is a personal licence holder who has already given 50 temporary event notices within the same calendar year as the specified event period, or
	when the premises user does not hold a personal licence, but has already given five temporary event notices in that year, or
	where twelve temporary event notices have been given in respect of the same premises in that year, or
	where temporary event notices are given for events at the same premises falling on more than 15 days in a year.
178.Subsection (12) gives the Secretary of State power by order to amend the limits in this section as to the numbers of temporary event notices that can be given by any person or in respect of any premises, or the number of days in any year when temporary events can take place at any premises. Again the orders are subject to the affirmative resolution procedure.
179.The effect of giving such a counter notice is that the proposed event is not a permitted temporary activity and is not authorised to proceed.
