How to have your say
Any person may submit a representation supporting or challenging the application. Representations must be made in writing to Liverpool City Council, Licensing and Public Protection, Cunard Building, Water Street, Liverpool L3 1AH, or via the council’s licensing representations portal, no later than August 13, 2026. Those who have any concerns or believe they may be adversely impacted are encouraged to explain how their points relate to the licensing objectives.
It is an offence under section 158 of the Licensing Act 2003 to knowingly or recklessly make a false statement in connection with a licensing application. The notice states that on conviction the maximum penalty is a level five fine on the standard scale.
What this could mean for Bold Street
If granted, the variation would permit late-night trading each day, which could increase footfall and convenience for customers seeking late purchases. The council will weigh potential benefits against considerations such as late-night noise, litter, delivery schedules, and the area’s existing cumulative impact policies where relevant.
Existing licence conditions would remain unless specifically varied, and the council could attach additional conditions if it decides to grant the application in whole or in part after the consultation period.
