Cwestiwn

The draft Tobacco and Vapes Bill suggests that councils will likely be responsible for overseeing the issuance and enforcement of licenses for tobacco retailers, similar to alcohol licensing. What discussions or plans has the council (and relevant departments) had about how it will resource, fund, and staff the implementation of this new licensing system?

The Authority are reviewing proposals outlined in the draft bill and have begun horizon scanning on future delivery models. This will be dependent on additional resources/licence fees to meet the additional demand that may come from the introduction of the bill along with additional information such as the licensing committee regime that may oversee. We are working closely with our professional bodies at the Institute of Licensing and the Chartered Trading Standards Institute.
