We are responsible for a range of licenses authorising people and businesses to carry out certain regulated activities, usually subject to particular rules and regulations.
Register of licences and registrations
Find out whether a premises or person has a current licence, or an application is in progress and open to public representation for objections or support.
Applications are also advertised in the local press and a poster is displayed on the premises for a 28-day period. The Police, local residents and others can raise their concerns by writing to us within a 28-day consultation period.
Any person wishing to submit representations to an application must give notice in writing to the licensing team at Ealing Council, Perceval House, 14/16 Uxbridge Road, Ealing W5 2HL, giving in detail the grounds of objection by the last date for objections.
Licensing Act 2003 applications
Representations must relate to one or more of the four licensing objectives which are:
- prevention of crime and disorder
- public safety
- prevention of public nuisance
- prevention of children from harm
Gambling Act 2005 applications
Representations must relate to one or more of the licensing objectives. ensuring that gambling is conducted in a fair and open way and protecting children and other vulnerable persons from harm.
Anonymous representations cannot be accepted. Copies of representations will be included in reports to the licensing sub-committee and therefore will pass into the public domain.
It is an offence liable on conviction to a fine up to level 5 (£5000) on the standard scale under section 158 of the Licensing Act 2003 to knowingly or recklessly make a false statement in connection with this application.
(Please note that in respect of a provisional statement (Licensing Act 2003), representations are restricted after the issue of the provisional statement unless there have been material changes either to the premises or the area).
