Consultation on proposal to examine the deregulation of Schedule One of the Licensing Act 2003
Date Posted: 3rd December 2011
The Government is currently consulting on measures that would scrap parts of the Licensing Act 2003. In terms of live music, these proposals would exempt all events under a 5,000 capacity from the need to obtain an entertainment licence. The consultation document is HERE
UK Music is appealing to anyone interested in this issue – whether they are a young artist, a gigging musician, a music business or a music venue – to send a letter supporting the removal of red-tape for live music in response to the consultation.
