Licensing

This page gives details of all the different types of licenses (below) that are needed for either business or personal use, and how they may be obtained. It also highlights certain activities that do not need licences.

Stafford Borough Council is the licensing authority for the administration and enforcement of the Licensing Act 2003 and associated orders and regulations within its area. The Act regulates:-

  • the sale of alcohol
  • the supply of alcohol by or on behalf of a club
  • the provision of regulated entertainment
  • the provision of late night refreshment

The Act requires that the Licensing Authority prepares and publishes a statement of its licensing policy every three years.  Before determining its policy for any three-year period, the Authority is required to undertake a public consultation exercise on the proposed policy.

The Council’s second Licensing Act Statement of Policy was published in January 2007. The present policy must be revised on or before 7 January 2011.
