This comprehensive and authoritative guide to licensing law is co-authored by the UK's only professor of licensing law and two eminent licensing practitioners. It provides a detailed exposition and contextual analysis of the legal provisions governing the licensing of alcohol and entertainment under the Licensing Act 2003, encompassing both the legislative and decision-making framework of the Act as well as its implications for human rights.
Fully updated and revised, it covers the various forms of authorization for licensable activities and licence and certificate conditions that might be attached as well as the enforcement and appeal provisions of the Act. This new edition, building on the highly acclaimed original work published in 2005, includes subsequent legislative changes and case law decisions.
New additions to this edition include:
expanded coverage of enforcement provisions and police powers
a revised and extended chapter on appeals, in light of the practical and procedural developments that have evolved in the appeal process
amendments to existing regulations and the revised Statutory Guidance issued in 2007.
This book is essential reading for all local authorities, legal advisers, licensing policy advisors, operators and the police as well as those applying for licences.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"... a treasure trove of scholarship for the licensing practitioner... throughly recommended for all those involved in alcohol and entertainment licensing." - Roy Light, Solicitors' Journal, April 2008
"This second edition of what has rapidly become the leading textbook on the subject is considerably larger than its predecessor... Certain chapters have been re-written and a considerable amount of material added to bring the volume up to nearly 1000 pages... Issues of practical importance are raised in many different areas... with the excellence of the presentation and the clarity of the progression [running] through all the new elements of the law. The attention to detail and accuracy are remarkable and the newly-added appendices are far-ranging enough to make this a reference volume in its own right." - Licensing Review, April/May 2008 Reviews of the second edition:

Reviews of the previous edition:
'Written by the country's only professor of licensing law and the principals of the 'UK's foremost niche licensing practice' this eagerly awaited volume, published in May, lives up to the reputation of its authors. Primarily written by Colin Manchester, as a replacement for his excellent Entertainment and Licensing Law and Practice, it benefits from the practical contribution provided by Poppleston and Allen. The volume's 788 pages (with 556 pages of text) provide a first-rate working guide through the mysteries and detail of the new law/ The Act and regulations, but not the Secretary of State's Guidance, are reproduced in full. There is much useful background material, such as extracts from parliamentary debates, which aid both understanding and interpretation of the new provisions.'
- Professor Roy Light, Solicitors Journal
'The authors of this book bided their time, and it has certainly paid off. No one who wishes to practise licensing law under the new system can hope to do so without the help of a comprehensive work providing detailed explanation of the Act against the background of both the statutory instruments, which provide crucial detail to the working of the Act and the government's statutory guidance, upon which local authorities rely in drafting their own local statements of licensing policy. This book succeeds in providing this....This book is a comprehensive work, dealing with every aspect of the new scheme and exploring in considerable detail each aspect of the new law, such as the licensing objectives, the scope of licensable activities through to the various types of licence. It includes sections on the impact of Human Rights Act 1998, appeals and enforcement, and there is a very important chapter on the impact of the statutory guidance on day-to-day decisions of the licensing authorities. It also covers the complex transitional provisions that will affect everyone who currently holds a justices' licence. The full text of the act and the major regulations are included and, importantly, each aspect of the new system is fully examined by considering stature, regulations and guidance together. This book could well become a definitive work on the new system, possibly supplanting some more established - and more costly - works. The key to its future success will be regular updates, which will certainly be needed to keep pace with what is bound to be a rapidly evolving area of law' - Julian Peskett, New Law Journal
'This book has shown itself to be a comprehensive and extremely well argued analysis of the new provisions. ..It is a masterly landscape of the new licensing landscape' - Professor Roy Light, Solicitors Journal
