Policy Writing & Documentation Service
Policy Writing & Documentation Service
​
Clear, accurate, and well-structured policies are essential for demonstrating compliance with licensing law and meeting the expectations of local authorities, Responsible Authorities, and enforcement officers.
​
Our Policy Writing & Documentation Service supports businesses in developing, reviewing, and updating licensing-related policies and operational documents that reflect both legal requirements and real-world practice. All documentation is tailored to the specific premises and operation, rather than relying on generic templates.
​
We work closely with clients to ensure policies are practical, proportionate, and aligned with the conditions attached to the Premises Licence, local licensing policy, and the Licensing Act 2003. Documents are written in clear, accessible language and are suitable for inspection, submission with applications, or use during enforcement visits and hearings.
​
What We Can Help With
​
Our service can include the drafting or review of documents such as:
​
-
Operating schedules and licensing statements
-
Age verification and Challenge 25 policies
-
Dispersal policies
-
Refusals and incident reporting procedures
-
Staff training records and authorisation policies
-
Noise management and public nuisance controls
-
Policies required following reviews or licence variations
​
Where required, we can also update existing documentation to reflect changes in legislation, licence conditions, or operational practice.
​
Why Professional Policy Writing Matters
​
Poorly written or generic policies can create compliance risks and are often challenged by Responsible Authorities. Clear, premises-specific documentation demonstrates responsible management, supports the licensing objectives, and can be critical when responding to enforcement action, representations, or licence reviews.
​
Our Licensing Consultants have extensive experience drafting policies that are understood by operators and respected by authorities, helping businesses operate confidently and compliantly.
