Temporary and occasional use notices

Find out what notices are available and how to apply for them.

Temporary Use Notice (TUN)

A TUN allows the use of premises for gambling where there is no premises licence but where a gambling operator wishes to use the premises temporarily for providing facilities for gambling.

A TUN may only be granted to a person or company holding a relevant operating licence issued by the Gambling Commission.

Occasional Use Notice (OUN)

An OUN allows licensed betting operators to use a track for short periods of betting without the need for a full betting premises licence.

The event must be temporary or infrequent. OUNs can only be used on eight days or less in a calendar year.

Registrations for TUNs or OUNs

Registration of these notices are rare in Islington and interested persons are advised to contact the gambling licensing team for further information.
