Whoever holds this role will be named on the licence and will need to be named on any application and give their consent.
If there is no DPS specified on the licence, no alcohol can be sold.
The application must be made by the existing Licence holder or their agent and will need to be accompanied by a completed consent form signed by the new designated premises supervisor.
The new DPS must be a personal licence holder.

The police have 14 days from the day they received the application to make a representation. If a representation is not received your licence will be granted and issued.
If the police do make a representation, the application will be determined at a hearing before our Licensing sub-committee and we will write to you with our decision.
