What the Statement of Licensing Policy (Alcohol Licensing) is, consultation and your views on our licensing policy.
What the Statement of Licensing Policy (Alcohol Licensing) is
Our
sets out what we need to consider when processing liquor (alcohol) licence applications in Renfrewshire.This includes:
- licensing hours
- children and young persons access to licensed premises
- occasional licences
- extended hours
- areas in Renfrewshire that may have too many licences issued for the sale of alcohol (or for certain types of alcohol sales: for example, pub-type premises, off sales, etc).
Renfrewshire Licensing Board agreed the revised Statement of Licensing Policy (Alcohol Licensing) 2018 to 2022 and it came into effect on 4 November 2018.

Our Licensing Board manages the applications for licences to sell alcohol in Renfrewshire.
The Board needs to agree and publish a new policy in 2023.
You can read our current
