Club Premise License: when entertainment is the prime objective of any company firm or

permission to entertain people in various ways such as dance bar, strip clubs casinos video

1.2. Discussing the differences between a personal license and premises License.
A personal and premises license, both are essential for any organisation for smooth
operations. Though they both differ from each other in many ways. A personal license which
is movable or portable which gives its user the freedom to carry alcohol and to supply it to
licensed users of premise licences whereas premise licence is given to people or organisations
as per their various ways of work which are covered under conditions mentioned in the
licence. Personal licences are issued for a period of 10 years where as the premise licence
duration is not specific and may vary (Beckingham, 2012). As per the nature of the activates
involved and is valid until it lapses after the period mentioned or is surrender or returned by
the holder. For permission to sell or supply of liquor a personal licence is mandatory whereas
for the requirement to provide late night refreshment and to provide regulated entertainment
such as dance bars and casinos etc and for the sale of liquor in such places a premise license
is mandatory.
Personal license is only issued to individuals above the age of 18 and above and should be
qualified and appropriately trained to run his business as stated in the license .on the other
hand no such requirement is essential for premise license (Smith, Morgan and McAtamney,
2011). In case of personal license only the personal in whose name the license has been
issued can conduct the specific act as mentioned in the license and cannot hand over or
transfer his right to any other individual in any condition whatsoever, doing so will be an
offensive and can be punished by law and his license too can be cancelled by the authorities
whereas in case of permission license the permission to conduct the entertainment or
commercial activities can be shared by person or persons as the wish of the license holder.
