Why are we consulting

The authority is required to review Cumulative Impact Assessments, which form part of its Licensing Policy at least every 3 years and as part of the review the authority must undertake a consultation exercise. The last full review of the Licensing Policy took place in 2023. 

The consultation provides an opportunity for you to contribute to the review of Carmarthenshire’s licensing policy. We look forward to receiving your comments and ideas to ensure that we are able to maintain an effective licensing system for Carmarthenshire.
