A – Yes. When a premises licence application is made to a Licensing Board, any person by notice to the Licensing Board can object to the application and also make representations to the Board concerning the licensing application. The Act also allows anyone to object or make representations in relation to applications for a major variation of a premises licence and an application for an occasional premises licence. It is also possible for anyone, at any time, to raise an objection regarding an existing premises licence. Anyone can make representations, including statements of support, to the Board concerning an application for a premises licence and can also make representation if they were not satisfied with a condition of licence set by the Licensing Board or may wish to make representation to request a modification of a licence.
