170: Functions of licensing authority

You could also call this:

"What jobs does the licensing authority do?"

The licensing authority has some jobs to do. You need to know what these jobs are. The authority considers and decides on things like licence applications, renewals, and changes, when licensing committees send them to it. The authority also looks at appeals from people who disagree with decisions made by licensing committees. It considers appeals about parts of draft local alcohol policies and applications to change, stop, or cancel licences and certificates. The authority does other jobs given to it by the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012 or other laws.
