S.L. 441.7 Art. 15Particulars of licences.

(1) The licence shall be issued in the name of an individual personally and by reference to the applicable type codes and commercial activities.

(2) Without prejudice to any other provision of law applicable in relation to a commercial activity, a licence issued under these regulations shall be subject to the applicable conditions contained in the Second Schedule.

(3) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this regulation, and subject to sub-regulation (4), where a licence has been issued under the Police Licences Act prior to the coming into force of these regulations, the licence conditions attached to such licence shall continue to apply in relation to such licence, unless the licensee opts, by an application made on the appropriate form to the Trade Licensing Unit, to have his licence issued by reference to the type codes and commercial activities as is referred to in sub-regulation (1):

Provided that nothing in these regulations or in any licence shall be interpreted as authorising any person to continue to exercise a commercial activity at a place where such commercial activity may no longer be exercised according to law.

(4) Where the option has not been exercised as aforesaid in relation to a licence, no change, addition or other amendment to the said licence shall be allowed and, subject to the second proviso of regulation 19, the licence may not be transferred to any other person: Provided that, notwithstanding the provisions of this sub-regulation, a licensee who holds a pedlar’s licence may request a change in the nature of the activity permitted by his or her licence, and such a request may be authorised by the Trade Licensing Unit if it is satisfied that such request for change is justified: Provided further that where such a change requires clearance from the health authorities or any other authority, the Trade Licensing Unit shall not authorise such a change unless the relative clearances are obtained.
