BII Scotland holds successful information session in Aberdeen

30-May-2006

 

 BII Scotland, the professional body for the licensed retail sector, held the first of their planned essential information sessions to help all those involved in the licensed trade through licensing reform last week in Aberdeen.

The session was attended by over 30 representatives from the local licensed retail sector, covering both on and off trade outlets. Presentations covered the implications of the new licensing act for the licensed trade and ways the trade can start to prepare for the changes.

Janet Hood, Head of BII Scotland, said, “These sessions are aimed as a heads up for licensees and to ensure that they have a good background in the new licensing act and are able to start preparing for its impact on their businesses.

She added, “I have had a great deal of positive feedback from this session and am looking forward to taking the sessions to other areas of Scotland. We will be back in Aberdeen in the autumn to give licensees a further update.”
