Can the Transfer be Granted Automatically?

No, it is in the public interest that Torbay Licensing Authority must process your application before it can be granted. You cannot provide, operate, authorise or undertake the licensable activity without a Licence and submitting an application form does not guarantee that a Licence will be granted.
If you have not had a response to your application within 20 working days, please contact Torbay Licensing Authority by email: licensing@torbay.gov.uk.

Failed Application Appeal

The applicant has right of appeal if the Licensing Committee has refused the application. Appeals should be lodged within 21 days of the notification that the application was refused. Appeals must be made at the Magistrates' Court.
