How the legislation affects licensed premises

The smokefree legislation has a big impact on licensed premises, and license holders need to consider a number of things:

Check the licensing conditions - are there any restrictions on the movement of people inside and outside of the premises?
Is there a need to apply for a variation to the licence?
Consider the impact people smoking outside of a premises can have on neighbours, and how any effects can be minimised. Should complaints be received this could lead to a review of the Premises Licence or the Council issuing a noise abatement notice or enforcement notice.
