Management of Licensed Premises

Here you will find information regarding management of licensed premises. For appointing an acting or temporary manager or terminating an appointment please complete the Notice of Management Change form below. Please download the form and complete - using a browser window will not save the completed form.

Temporary manager

If a certified manager is ill, absent, dismissed or resigns, the licensee can appoint a temporary manager. The temporary manager does not need to hold a current manager's certificate, but must lodge an application for a manager's certificate within two working days of the appointment. The temporary manager's status will remain in effect until their application has been considered.

If the application is not lodged within two working days, or the application is refused, the licensee must stop using that person as a manager.

Acting manager

Acting managers can be appointed to cover planned or unplanned leave. If a manager is ill or absent, the licensee may appoint an acting manager for no more than three weeks at any one time, or a period of no more than six weeks in any 12-month period.

Register of Duty Managers

It is a requirement for licence holders to keep an up to date register of Duty managers (Form 232), including temporary and acting appointments and resignations. This information must be kept for at least 2 years after it is recorded.

Below is a link to a template you can use or adapt for your own premises. This information can be kept electronically so as to be easily updated.
