Details

The only practitioner guide to the Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005 and alcohol licensing law in Scotland.

Drawing on his wealth of experience, Stephen McGowan provides a practical guide that brings licensing practitioners fully up to date on all statutory amendments and jurisprudence. McGowan contextualises the history and policy of the Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005. It provides detailed analysis of case decisions and delivers practical advice on application process and procedures, hearings and the day-to-day practice of this complex and politically volatile area of legal and social life in Scotland.

The book is delivered in a conversational and accessible style with numerous case studies and real life examples of how licensing law works – and sometimes doesn’t work – in practice.

Brightcrew v City of Glasgow Licensing Board
Lidl UK GmbH v City of Glasgow Licensing Board
BP Oil UK Ltd v City of Glasgow Licensing Board and Edinburgh Licensing Board
