If a licensing authority changes their licensing procedure 1) is there any legal obligation to inform licensees of the change 2) Is there any reference to when and when not to inform licensees in the best practice documents the change in this case was to stop issuing licenses by post and require drivers to collect them from council premises |

I doubt that there would need to be any formal notification required. |

Questions can be asked why have they changed the practice of sending licenses by post. Quote "Department for Business Innovation & Skills,Regulators Code" consultation must be seen to have taken place. |

Send in a complaint asking why the trade wasn't consulted on this matter. |
