NORTH AYRSHIRE COUNCIL 
8 January 2025   
Licensing Committee 
Title:    Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982 and other Licensing
statutes: Licensing Matters 
Purpose:  To advise the Committee of:
a) Hearings to be determined 
Recommendation:  1) That the Committee should decide whether or not to make a
Resolution excluding the public from the meeting at which
any of the matters in this Report are to be considered;
2) That the Committee consider and determine the matters
before them. 
1. Executive Summary 
1.1 The Licensing Committee's remit is to exercise the Council's licensing functions. These
functions arise under many statutes, mainly the Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982.
Depending on the legislation and the circumstances of each individual case, the
Committee is entitled to grant, refuse, renew, vary, suspend and revoke Licences. 
2. Background 
2.1 The Committee’s business under the 1982 Act is as follows: 
Appendix A  - Licences and Permits where Hearings have been convened 
Exempt Information
2.2 The Committee will consider "Exempt Information" under the Local Government
(Scotland) Act 1973, Schedule 7A.  The information is covered by one or more of the
following categories of "Exempt Information" under Schedule 7A:
Paragraph 3: "Information relating to any particular applicant for, or recipient or former   
recipient of, any service provided by the authority."
Paragraph 6: "Information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular   
person (other than the authority)."
Paragraph 14: "Any action taken or to be taken in connection with the prevention,     
investigation or prosecution of crime."
Agenda Item 3

Page 10

Paragraph 15:  "The identity of a Protected Informant" - where "Protected Informant" is   
defined in Part III as a person who informs the Local Authority about a   
past, present or future crime, breach of statutory duty, breach of planning   
control, or nuisance. 
2.3 The details of the cases in the Appendix, with any relevant documents (such as letters
from the Police or objectors) are in the background papers given to Committee
Members and will be sent to the respective Applicants or Licence-Holders before the
Meeting.  The Schedules are excluded from the published Agenda under Local
Government (Scotland) Act 1973, Section 50B(2) and (5).  This has been done as the
Clerk considers that the meeting is likely not to be open to the public while those
Schedules are being considered, as they contain "Exempt Information".
2.4. The Committee is entitled, but not obliged, to make a Resolution excluding the public
from a meeting during consideration of an item of business whenever it is likely, in view
of the nature of the business to be transacted or the nature of the proceedings, that if
members of the public were present during consideration of that item of business there
would be disclosure to them of "Exempt Information" (Section 50A(4)).
2.5. For example:
Paragraph 3 could apply in relation to information or advice requested by a
member of the public.
Paragraph 6 could apply to a business activity (such as where an Applicant wants
a Licence for business or employment).
Paragraphs 14 or 15 could apply where it was alleged that there was criminal
conduct or anti-social behaviour committed by or against a Licence-Holder or
Applicant for a Licence, or where the Committee was told that any person had
committed a criminal offence (whether or not there had been concluded Court
proceedings).
2.6. Accordingly, if a Resolution is made:
(a) the publicly-accessible Minutes will exclude so much of the proceedings
during which the public were excluded (Section 50C);
(b) the Minutes will include a summary of the proceedings without disclosing
the ‘Exempt Information’ (Sections 50C(2) & 50C(1)(b)). 
3. Proposals 
3.1 It is proposed that the Committee consider and determine each of the listed cases in
accordance with the required procedure. 
4. Implications/Socio-economic Duty 
Financial 
4.1 There are possible financial implications in relation to any Licensing decision.
10

Page 11

Human Resources 
4.2 None 
Legal 
4.3 There are possible legal implications in relation to any licensing decision.  Depending
on the legislation, there may be a right of appeal. 
Equality/Socio-economic 
4.4 Equality Act 2010 imposes duties on the Council:
Section 1(1) ("Public sector duty regarding socio-economic inequalities"): the Council
"must, when making decisions of a strategic nature about how to exercise its
functions, have due regard to the desirability of exercising them in a way that is
designed to reduce the inequalities of outcome which result from socio-economic
disadvantage."
Section 149(1) ("Public sector equality duty"): the Council
"must, in the exercise of its functions, have due regard to the need to -
(a) eliminate discrimination, harassment, victimisation and any other conduct
that is prohibited by or under [that Act];
(b) advance equality of opportunity between persons who share a "Relevant
Protected Characteristic" and persons who do not share it;
(c) foster good relations between persons who share a "Relevant Protected
Characteristic" and persons who do not share it."
The "Relevant Protected Characteristics" are: age; disability; gender
reassignment; pregnancy and maternity; race; religion or belief; sex; and sexual
orientation. 
The Clerk has considered these Duties in preparing this Report and any specific impacts
will be evaluated where appropriate. Unless the Clerk advises the Committee otherwise
in a particular case, there are no significant impacts to be considered 
Climate Change and Carbon 
4.5 None. 
Key Priorities 
4.6 North Ayrshire Council has priorities for "Communities and Local Democracy"  and
"Wellbeing" in the Council Plan 2023-2028  An effective licensing system, e.g.
monitoring the 'fit and proper' status of hire-car drivers and the safety of their cars, helps
achieve Strategic Aim-Wellbeing.

NORTH AYRSHIRE COUNCIL
8th January 2025
Licensing Committee
Title: Public Entertainment Resolution under the Civic
Government (Scotland) Act 1982
Purpose: To consider the Public Entertainment Resolution.
Recommendation: That the Committee agree to consider and determine the terms of
its Public Entertainment Licence Resolution, and thereafter,
consult on such in terms of the required Statutory process under
the Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982.
It is not recommended that car cruise events are licensed under
the Public Entertainment Licence procedure, and that they are
more suitably covered by existing Police powers, Road Traffic
Legislation, and other similar Legislative powers.
1. Executive Summary
1.1 The Licensing Committee exercise the functions of the Council as "Licensing
Authority" under many statutes, including the Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982
(as amended by the Criminal Justice and Licensing (Scotland) Act 2010).
1.2 The Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982 provides powers to local authorities to
licence a wide range of different activities. Some activities are required to be licensed
under the said Act, and are mandatory, and others the Council has a discretion as
to what to licence. However, to exercise the discretionary powers under the 1982
Act, the Act states that those powers “shall have effect in the area of a licensing
authority, only if, and insofar as the authority have so resolved” in accordance with
the Act. The wording of the Council’s current public entertainment resolution is
somewhat dated, and this report recommends various changes to be considered by
the Committee. Accordingly, this report sets out the steps required to review the
Council’s current public entertainment licence and create the appropriate resolution
under the said ‘1982 Act to revise and update the licensable public entertainment
activity types appropriately in a modern context.
Agenda Item 4
15

Page 16

20 
2. Background 
2.1 A public entertainment licence is required for the use of premises as a place where
members of the public are admitted or may use any facilities for the purposes of
entertainment or recreation. The Council’s current public entertainment resolution is
contained at Appendix 1. This contains several specified activities which requires to
be updated. 
2.2 There have been meetings of the Member/Officer working group to consider the
terms of the Council’s current resolution, and the Clerk to the committee has further
met recently with protective services colleagues to discuss the terms, scope and
practical workability and monitoring of the terms of any updated resolution. It is now
appropriate given the need to update the resolution to bring forward draft proposals
for the Committee to consider, and for the Clerk to the committee to outline the
relevant process and timescales. It is anticipated that during the consultation
process, as outlined below, that internal council services will have a further
opportunity to respond to the terms of any proposed draft and to allow for the
required public consultation. In addition, guidance notes will be worked on with
protective service colleagues as to guidance issued to applicants as to their relevant
responsibilities and what is expected of them and the role of the local authority too
in regulating such and any required risk-based inspection process thereon. There
are likely to be an increase in resource considerations for any approved public
entertainment licence resolution that is approved by the Committee. This would be
in terms of increased resourcing allocated to the regulation and enforcement of such
activities as required.
2.3 The proposed resolution is outlined in Appendix 2. The proposed resolution seeks
to outline the activities that will require to be licensed in terms of the updated
resolution. The Act requires that, if a Council resolves to licence public
entertainment, it shall specify the places, or classes, of those activities which shall
fall to be licensed and regulated. 
2.4 As a reminder to the Committee, when specifying places or classes, it is best to
avoid descriptions of activities that are so specific that the list doesn’t keep pace with
changes in public entertainment and to avoid generic descriptions that can regulate
some activities that are lower risk. Factors to consider in terms of whether to resolve
to licence an activity under a public entertainment licence resolution are whether the
risk of the activity is significantly affected by whether the person is a “fit and proper”
person, whether the premises is suitable for the activity in question and the need for
the Council to be consulted when an event is being planned. It is proposed also that
there the public entertainment licence provisions should not apply for spectator-
based entertainment where the number is less than 200 persons, the event has
been risk assessed and it is certified by the organiser that no aspect of the event
presents a high risk to the safety of the spectators. The organiser will require to take
full cognisance of the HSG195-The Health and Safety Executive Event Safety Guide
known as the “Purple Book” and any ancillary guidance that the local authority may
provide from time to time too on such events. 
16

Page 17

21 
2.5 As outlined in Part B of the draft resolution there are proposed exemptions to the
requirements where it is already covered by the Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005
requirements and in terms of the “Exemptions” as outlined below: 
“ Community and School Fundraising Exemption:
(a) the place is operated by a charitable, religious, youth, educational,
recreational, community, political or similar organisation; and
(b) charges or donations are wholly for the benefit of the operating organisation,
or another organisation which is within (a);
it does not need a PEL.” 
Section 41 (2) of the Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982 further specifies when
a public entertainment licence will not be required including usage by schools,
charitable organisations and athletic or sports grounds etc. used for those purposes.
2.6 The proposed resolution has been published within a local newspaper, online (at
Notice near KA12 8EE | Public Notice Portal) and via a Local Authority press
release. Notice of the proposed resolution was first published on 27th November
2024. A copy of this notice is contained in Appendix 3. Under section 9(6) of the
Civic Government (Scotland) 1982 Act, a licensing authority shall not make a
resolution unless they have published in a newspaper or newspapers circulating in
their area the terms of the proposed resolution together with a notice stating that
they intend to make the resolution; and that representations about the resolution
may be made in writing to the authority within 28 days of the first publication of the
notice. 
2.7 In terms of section 9(7) of the Civic Government (Scotland) 1982 Act, a Licensing
Authoriy may make amendments to the proposed resolution as it sees fit in light of
the representations received during the 28 days’ notice period. 
2.8 Under section 9(8) of the Civic Government (Scotland) 1982 Act, the licensing
authority shall, as soon as they have made a resolution, publish in a newspaper or
newspapers circulating in their area the terms of the resolution so made, together
with a notice stating the effect of the resolution. 
2.9 As specified in section 9(2) of the Civic Government (Scotland) 1982 Act, any
resolution cannot come into effect until at least nine months after the date that the
resolution is made. 
3. Proposals 
3.1 It is recommended that the proposed resolution contained at Appendix 2 is adopted
in its entirety and it should come into effect on 9th October 2025. The proposed
resolution has been published for representations. The resolution should then be
circulated in terms of section 9(8) of the Civic Government (Scotland) Act. 
4. Implications/Socio-economic Duty
17

Page 18

22
Financial
4.1 The legislation requires the Council to charge fees for licences that cover the costs
of administering the licensing regime, therefore changes to the types of activity
licensed by the Council are cost neutral. However, there will be an increase in officer
time and enforcement/regulation of such activities.
Human Resources
4.2 There will be additional resource requirements where the Committee resolves to
add additional licensing types in its revised resolution. These will require additional
visits by protective services in terms of the public awareness of new licensing
requirements and from enforcement officers from legal services where there are
reports of unlicensed activities.
Legal
4.3 A modern Public Entertainment Licence Resolution is required to take account the
change and nature of activities that should be licensed. This requires to be in terms
of the Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982.
Equality/Socio-economic
4.4 An "Equality Impact Assessment" screening has been carried out, and there are
no equalities impacts associated with using these discretionary powers. There are
no socio-economic implications of the proposals.
Climate Change and Carbon
4.5 None
Key Priorities
4.6 North Ayrshire Council has priorities for "Communities and Local Democracy” and
"Wellbeing" in the Council Plan 2023-2028. An effective licensing system and
updated public entertainment resolution, helps achieve the Strategic Aim-Wellbeing.
Community Wealth Building
4.7 There are no Community Wealth Building Issues.
5. Consultation
5.1 Consultation is required in terms of the statutory process, as outlined above, in terms
of the Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982.

CITIZENS ADVICE BUREAU
Trustees for the Board of directors
Are you passionate about making a difference? Are you
willing and able to give up some of your valuable time to work
with a Charity that has a social ethos and values to make
a difference in the local communities we serve? As the need
for our services has grown, we are looking for new trustees
to contribute to help us develop and deliver our strategy,
values and vision.
East Ayrshire CAB provides free, independent, impartial and
confidential advice and information to ensure that people
understand their rights and responsibilities and can express
their needs effectively. We campaign and influence to tackle
the root cause of the problems people face and work to
strengthen their rights.
We’d like to enhance our board to better reflect the diverse
individuals and communities we work alongside, and
welcome applications from all backgrounds. Our bureau is
a place for learning, innovating and connecting, so whether
you’re already an experienced trustee, or taking your first
step, we’d love to hear from you.
Becoming a Board member is not just about what you can offer
us, it is a rewarding role that helps you learn new skills, broaden
your network, raising your profile and make a real difference.
We welcome applications from across the community and
are committed to equal opportunities. If you feel you have
the skills required and the time to commit, please get in
touch for information on how to apply and/or a confidential
informal discussion on what is involved. Please email:
