Designated Premises Supervisor

There must be a Designated Premises Supervisor (DPS) for all premises selling alcohol. A DPS must be a holder of a personal licence. If you are to be appointed to such position, your personal licence becomes all the more important. Should your licence be revoked for any reason when you are a DPS or you refuse to allow your name to be used, the premises will lose the power to authorise the sale of alcohol.

The DPS should be the point of contact at the premises, in day-to-day control, even though he may be absent from the premises from time to time.

Due to the high level of responsibility involved, this person must formally give their consent to undertaking this role when the application for the premises licence is made.

The police may object to the appointment if they feel that it will be to the detriment of the crime and disorder objective.

Premises which do not have a Designated Premises Supervisor, either because one was never appointed, or because the DPS has left, may not sell alcohol.

Applications

You can apply to make the change to your DPS here at Sapcote Licensing. You will need to answer some basic questions and send it to us. One of our  team will check the answers, complete the application form and send it with the appropriate fee and documentation to the Local Authority - all for just £75.00 + VAT.
