Provisional statements
You can make an application to us for a Provisional
Statement in respect of premises that you
- expect to be constructed;
- expect to be altered; or
- expect to acquire a right to occupy.
Unlike a Premises Licence application, you can apply for a
Provisional Statement without having an Operating Licence from the
Gambling Commission or a right to occupy the premises.
You will need to complete a different application form and
must provide a schedule of works and plans, the rest of the
requirements, application procedure and decision making are
the same as if you are applying for a new licence.
When work is completed, you will still need to apply for a
premises licence. Provided nothing substantial has changed
representations will not be accepted if the person could reasonably
have been expected to make such an objection at the time the
Provisional Statement was applied for and there has been no
material change in circumstances of the premises or the vicinity of
them.
