Great Yarmouth Borough Council Licensing Act 2003 - application guidance

If there are no representations within the 28 day consultation period and the application has been correctly submitted and advertised, the licence will be granted as applied for.

If a relevant representation is received, a licensing sub-committee meeting will be scheduled in order to determine the application. The hearing must be held within 20 working days following the expiry date of the representation period unless it is in the 'public interest' to hold a hearing later than 20 working days.

There is a right to appeal the decision of the licensing sub-committee. The appeal should be made to the Magistrates Court appropriate to the location of the premises concerned.
