The Environment and Licensing Committee of Gedling Council met on Tuesday 11 June 2024 to discuss several key issues, including the permanent provisions for pavement licences under the Levelling Up and Regeneration Act 2023, and various licensing applications.
Pavement Licences - The Levelling Up and Regeneration Act 2023
The committee considered a report from the Head of Environment regarding the permanent provisions for pavement licences under the Levelling Up and Regeneration Act 2023. The Act makes permanent the temporary measures introduced by the Business and Planning Act 2020, which allowed businesses to apply for pavement licences to place furniture on highways adjacent to their premises.
The committee resolved to:
- Note the permanent status of the provisions under the Levelling Up and Regeneration Act 2023.
- Delegate the functions under Part 1 of the Business and Planning Act 2020 to the Director.
- Note that officers are drafting a policy for pavement licensing, which will be submitted to the committee for approval in due course.
- Note that officers are working on the fee setting for pavement licensing, which will also be submitted to the committee for approval.

The committee discussed a change of circumstances regarding the holder of a joint Hackney Carriage/Private Hire Driver’s Licence, identified as MA. MA attended the meeting and addressed the committee. Following the council’s approved Policy and Guidelines, the committee resolved to revoke MA’s licence, giving MA 21 days to surrender the licence.
