Tacit consent will apply to the applications and notifications listed below. This means that you will be able to act as though your application is granted if you have not heard from the council by the end of the stated target completion period.

|---|---|
| Application for a premises licence | 28 |
| Provisional statement | 28 |

| Request to be removed as designated premises supervisor | 0 |

Tacit consent will not apply to an application for a minor variation to a premises or club licence. This is because it is in the public interest that the council must process your application before it can be granted.
If you have not heard from the council within the 15 day target time, please contact us.
