The Premises Licence must indicate the specific time at which alcohol can no longer be sold/supplied (the "terminal hour") and a time when the public must vacate the premises (as determined by the "opening hours�). The consumption of alcohol between the terminal hour and closing is not a licensable activity and there is no set time limit for this period.
