Variation of Licences
A licence may be varied by the Council with the agreement of the licence holder, such as where a new manager is agreed.
The Council may vary the licence without agreement if there has been change of circumstance, such as there is need to provide additional amenities, carry out works or alter the maximum number of persons permitted to occupy the property. However, in deciding whether to vary a licence the Council may not impose higher, or otherwise different, standards than applied when it originally granted the licence, except where the standards are required to meet new amenity standards prescribed by regulations.
