The Children (Performances) Regulations 1968
These Regulations make provision with respect to children in England, Wales or Scotland who take part in a performance to which section 37 of the Children and Young Persons Act 1963 applies. A child means a person who is not over compulsory school age. Section 37 applies to a performance in connection with which a charge is made, a performance in licensed premises, a broadcast performance and a performance recorded (by whatever means) with a view to its use in a broadcast or in a film intended for public exhibition. For most performances a licence granted by the appropriate local authority is required by section 37: but for some a licence is not required.
