Interim Authority Application - Premises
When the holder of a licence dies suddenly or becomes bankrupt or mentally incapable, an "interim authority" notice may be given to the licensing authority. This must be submitted within seven days of the end of the previous license.
The notice may be given by a person who has an interest in the premises concerned or is connected to the former holder of the premises licence. For the purposes of an Interim Authority a person has a prescribed interest if:
- the former holder has died and that person is their personal representative
- the former holder has become mentally incapable and that person acts for him/her under a power of attorney
- the former holder has become insolvent and that person is his/her insolvency practitioner
