Tremark Associates
Licensing Act 2003 notices printed, displayed, inspected and removed on your behalf, with photographic evidence at every attendance.
Tremark can manage the physical display of notices required in connection with Licensing Act 2003 applications, providing clients with a complete and documented service from initial preparation through to removal at the end of the consultation period. This is particularly useful for solicitors, licensing consultants, operators and businesses managing applications at sites away from their own offices.
Our service can include:
One instruction covers preparation, display, checking, removal and reporting, so the applicant, and the legal or licensing team acting for them, can show exactly when and where the Licensing Act 2003 notice was on display.

Section 17 of the Licensing Act 2003 requires a premises licence application to be advertised as the regulations prescribe. Regulation 25 of the 2005 Regulations sets out how: a pale blue notice, A4 or larger, must be displayed prominently at the premises for no less than 28 consecutive days, starting the day after the application is given to the licensing authority. The same applies to provisional statements, full variations and club premises certificates.
Licensing authorities check that applications have been properly advertised. A notice that goes missing, is defaced or cannot be read from the street can mean delay or re-advertising, which is why an independent, photographed record of display is worth having.
Send us the notice, the site address and the dates, and we can arrange the rest.

Common questions about Licensing Act 2003 notices and our display service.
For a premises licence application, provisional statement, full variation or club premises certificate application, the notice must be displayed for no less than 28 consecutive days starting on the day after the application is given to the licensing authority. Our three scheduled attendances are timed around that period: display on the required date, a mid-point inspection, and removal once the display period has expired.
The regulations require a notice of A4 size or larger, pale blue in colour, printed legibly in black in a font size of 16 or larger, displayed prominently at or on the premises where it can be conveniently read from the exterior. For premises covering more than 50 metres square, a further notice is needed every 50 metres along the perimeter abutting a highway. We print and laminate the notice you supply to meet these requirements.
Printing and laminating the notices, the initial attendance and display, a mid-point inspection, replacement of notices if required at that inspection, the final attendance and removal, an attendance report and photographic evidence.
No. The applicant or their solicitor supplies the notice, which keeps its contents under the control of the person making the application. We print it, laminate it, display it, check it and remove it. If you need the notice content prepared, your licensing solicitor or consultant can do this before instructing us.
Three scheduled attendances are included: the initial attendance on or before the required display date, a mid-point inspection during the consultation period, and a final attendance to remove the notices after the display period has ended. The dates are agreed when you instruct us.
If a notice has been damaged, removed or is no longer properly displayed when we carry out the scheduled mid-point inspection, a replacement can be displayed where appropriate and photographed. Locations needing additional attendances beyond the three included can be priced on request.
Photographs of the notices in situ at each attendance, together with an attendance report confirming the date, time and location of display, inspection and removal. This gives an independent audit trail that can be produced if the licensing authority or an objector questions whether the application was properly advertised.
Yes. The service is particularly useful where a legal or licensing team is coordinating applications across a number of locations. For multiple sites, high-volume projects or locations requiring additional attendances, pricing is provided on request.
The Licensing Act 2003 applies in England and Wales, and that is where most instructions arise. Tremark can arrange attendances in Scotland and Northern Ireland under their own licensing regimes, subject to the particular instruction.
