Gambling and Betting Licences - More Information

The Gambling Act states that, for a person to be regarded as an Interested Party, they must

• Live sufficiently close to the premises to be likely to be affected by the authorised activities
• Have business interests that might be affected by the authorised activities, or
• Represent persons in either of the above groups.

Licensing Authorities must include a section in their Policy which sets out how they will determine if a person is considered to be an Interested Party.
