Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005 (3rd edition)

The Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005 completely overhauled Scottish Licensing law, sweeping away the Licensing (Scotland) Act 1976 and necessitating a completely new edition of his essential text.

Since then there have been substantial and intricate changes effected by the Criminal Justice and Licensing (Scotland) Act 2010 and the Alcohol etc (Scotland) Act 2010.In this third edition, Jack Cummins again sets out the text of the 2005 Act, incorporating amendments, together with key regulations to which constant reference will be required.

This new edition also takes into account a stream of cases from the sheriff court and Court of Session since the previous edition.
