Register a marriage venue application guidance

An applicant is able to seek a review of a decision made by an authority to refuse an application or a renewal, to revoke an approval (other than when directed by the Registrar General) or to attach conditions other than the standard conditions. The application for review should be delivered to the Proper Officer of the Authority. The Proper Officer will direct the Licensing Sub Committee 3 (Regulatory and Appeals) to consider the review. The applicant(s) will be invited to attend the meeting.

On determining whether to uphold the original decision, vary the decision or substitute a different decision the authority must provide notice in writing to the applicant or holder, stating its decision, the reasons for it and, if different to the original decision, the date on which it takes effect.
