LICENSING ACT 2003

That this House welcomes the recommendations of the Sixth Report of the Culture, Media and Sport Committee on The Licensing Act 2003; is pleased to note in particular the report's recognition of the need for an exemption to the Licensing Act for live performances at small venues; celebrates the cultural value of live performances as an integral part of the creative sector; and therefore urges the Government to implement the report's recommendations as soon as reasonably possible.
