![Page 11: Parish Liaison meeting – 3 June 2015 Welcome John Richardson Head of Community Services](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56649f095503460f94c1dec8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Improvements to the registration system
• Licensing will now register all Parish and Town Councils on their behalf.
• Receive a unique log-in and registration details.
This will relieve some of the administration burden and ensure that all Parish and TownCouncils have the immediate ability to utilise the system.

![Page 12: Parish Liaison meeting – 3 June 2015 Welcome John Richardson Head of Community Services](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56649f095503460f94c1dec8/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Improvements to the Search Criteria
• Licensing will save the relevant search criteria for each Parish and Town Council so
they will automatically receive the weeklynotifications for their ward.
This will take away the “set up” responsibilityfrom the Parish and Town Councils.

What is included?
• Proposed licensable activities and proposed hours for licensable activities on the new record.
• Have the ability to print off information from the Public Access System to present to Parish and Town Council meetings for discussion.
