Licensing for Public Sector Organisations

Whether you are a local authority, a police authority or a parent teachers association, our licensing solicitors are able to assist you

We recognise that public sector organisations are under increasing pressure to save costs but still deliver a seamless service. The pressure is even more acute when you are required to consider and promote the licensing objectives:

• the prevention of crime and disorder
• the protection of children from harm
• public safety
• the prevention of public nuisance

Across our range of licensing services we try to work with licensing authorities to try to resolve issues at the outset thereby saving both time and cost.

Our experienced licensing team can work alongside your organisation to help minimise costs in matters involving prosecutions. We have a long history of assisting local police authorities in this way.

Added Value

• We also offer regular training sessions for local licensing authorities through the Local Government Training Partnership scheme.
• We provide regular updates on key cases and legislation through our Public Sector law brief.
