Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Rules)

These Rules amend the Crown Court Rules 1982 to take account of section 67B of the Licensing Act 1964 which confers a right of appeal to the Crown Court against a decision of licensing justices or a magistrates' court to grant a restriction order under section 67A of that Act (which restricts the afternoon permitted hours in licensed premises or a registered club) or as to the terms of such an order. (Section 67B has similar application in relation to licensed canteens by virtue of section 156A of the 1964 Act.)
