Appendix 2 – Current policy on temporary exemptions 
9 Temporary Exemptions
9.1 Given one of the reasons behind STL legislation being introduced is to ensure
basic safety standards are in place across all STL, the Committee may agree
that on this basis, no temporary exemptions will be granted. This would mean
that where a person is using their premises as a STL, at any time throughout
the year, a STL licence would be required.
9.2 The Licensing Authority may however, grant temporary exemptions for
national events within West Dunbartonshire. 
9.3 The Licensing Authority is aware of the statutory requirement to keep its
temporary exemption policy under review and to publish it every three years.
