transactions; and

premises approved for the purposes by the licensing authority subject to

(b) as a production outlet for 1 licensee and as a retail outlet for the

but the licensing authority must not grant a licence resulting in the same

the premises would, in view of the number of licensees involved or the nature
and extent of the trade or for any other reason, be better authorised by a
retail liquor merchant's licence or a licence of some other category.
(1c) To the extent that licensees share the same premises as referred to
in subsection (1b)—
(a) the part of the premises that is shared is referred to as a

or off the site as specified in the endorsement (a producer's event
endorsement) except if—
(a) the licensee does not have production premises; or
(b) the licensing authority is of the opinion that the trade to be
authorised by the endorsement would, in view of the likely scale or nature of
the event or for any other reason, be better authorised by a limited licence or

Note—
Licensees cannot share the same site specified in an endorsement—see
section 48(3).
(1e) If a licensee's production premises are in a particular wine region
and are to be used for the production of wine, any site specified in a

the licensee to sell or supply the licensee's product in accordance with the
endorsement and the licensed premises are, for the period for which the licensee
is so authorised to sell or supply the product, to be regarded as including any
site specified in the endorsement.

primary produce by or at the direction of the licensee (or a related body

(3) Section 39(3)—delete subsection (3) and substitute:
(3) The licensing authority may, on application by a licensee, grant an
approval for the purposes of section 39(2)(c)(iii) if satisfied that

corporate).

number of licensees involved or the nature and extent of the trade or for any

producer's licence of proposed premises as outlet

that are required under the law relating to planning to permit the use of the
proposed premises for the sale of liquor have been obtained.

licensing authority, the licence should be subject on the addition of the
premises (either in addition to, or in substitution for, existing conditions of
the licence).
(3) If—
(a) a certificate has been granted under subsection (1);
and
(b) the holder of the certificate satisfies the licensing
authority—
(i) that the conditions (if any) on which the certificate was granted have
been complied with; and
(ii) that the premises have been completed in accordance with plans
approved by the licensing authority on the grant of the certificate or a
variation of those plans later approved by the licensing authority,
the new premises must be added to the licence and, if the certificate of
approval provides for the addition or substitution of conditions, the licence
then becomes subject to the new conditions in accordance with the terms of the
certificate.

licensee's trading rights were limited to those possible under a producer's
licence.
