Licensing policy consultation

This consultation has ended

Start date 17 August 2022
End date 02 October 2022

Under the Licensing Act 2005, the council is required to publish a licensing policy setting out how it will regulate licensed premises in the borough. 

Our current licensing policy expires in 2022 and we need to publish a new five-year policy.  The current policy has been reviewed and updated, reflecting changes we believe need to be incorporated. 

Let us know what you think

Please let us know what you think about the draft licensing policy by completing a short online survey.

Have your say  

The responses will be taken into account before a final decision is made and the policy adopted by Council by January 2023

Further information

If you have any questions relating to this consultation or wish to discuss anything in relation to licensing matters, please email licensing@islington.gov.uk or call 020 7527 3031 between 1pm and 5pm Monday to Friday.
