Consultation
To reduce the administrative burden both on LAs and the DCMS and Home Office statistics teams, DCMS does not intend to publish entertainment licensing collection data for the year ending March 2015. The main use of the collection is to monitor the impact of new and amended legislation and the intention is to collect when needed. The Home Office (who collect these data on behalf of DCMS) will be resuming the collection for year ending March 2016 and we intend to publish these data in Autumn 2016.
DCMS is seeking feedback from stakeholders and users of this data. We would be grateful if you could take the time to complete this short questionnaire which should take no longer than 5 minutes to help inform DCMS’s decision making.
All information provided will be treated in confidence and not shared with anyone outside of DCMS. If you have any questions in relation to this survey or require assistance, please contact us at evidence@culture.gsi.gov.uk.
