As statutory bodies under the Licensing Act 2003 and the Gambling Act 2005, the Licensing Sub-Committees shall undertake hearings on individual licensing applications (as detailed in Part 3 Section C of the Council’s Constitution), and has the power to make final decisions on those matters. The authority to agree minor variations to premises licenses under the Licensing Act 2003 is delegated to officers. All licence reviews will be undertaken by the Licensing Sub-Committee.

As non-statutory bodies, the Licensing Sub-Committees shall undertake hearings on individual licensing applications that fall outside the Licensing Act 2003 and Gambling Act 2005, where they have been objected to and require a Member level hearing. Examples include the licensing of street trading, special treatment premises, sex establishments, pet shops and dog breeding establishments. All licence reviews will be undertaken by the Licensing Sub-Committee.
