Medical Officers of Health are required to report on all applications for On and Club Licenses. Staff from Community and Public Health carry out investigations primarily focused on the suitability of the applicant especially their focus on preventing alcohol related harm (host responsibility).
As part of the investigations, staff collaborate with Police Licensing staff and Licensing Inspectors from the Territorial Local Authorities to carry out monitoring of premises and Controlled Purchase Operations.
Controlled Purchase Operations involve testing licensees procedures to ensure minors are not supplied with alcohol and also to ensure that Licensees meet their legal requirements relating to the promotion and availability of appropriate food.
Staff from Community and Public Health are involved in Licensed Controller Qualification Training (a requirement for a General or Club Manager’s Certificate) as well as working with Licensees and Duty Managers to provide on-site training Host Responsibility training for all premises staff.
