Why you need it

We hold no national enabling statute for this licence. See the note above for why. Rather than cite an Act that does not create it, we say so plainly — your council remains the authority on whether you need it.

Who issues it

Your local council issues this. Councils apply the same statute but set their own fees, conditions and timescales.

Where to apply

Duty, penalty and exemption labels are Guvnor’s analysis of the enabling instrument, not the instrument itself. Fees, forms and conditions are set by the issuing authority — always check the linked source.
