Proceeding contribution from Lord Paddick (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 25 April 2022. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Licensing Act 2003 (Platinum Jubilee Licensing Hours) Order 2022.


Licensing Act 2003 (Platinum Jubilee Licensing Hours) Order 2022

My Lords, I thank the Minister for introducing this instrument. If ever there was an occasion of exceptional national significance, surely it must be Her Majesty the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. Therefore, we are generally supportive.

However, my concern is over the fact that the Government listened to the consultation that was run and, according to what they have published:

“Out of the 74 respondents, 58 agreed that the extension should only apply to on sales”,

not to off-sales. As a consequence, this instrument does not apply to off-sales.
