public bowling-alley and public skating rink licence application:
We aim to provide an efficient and courteous service
to all applicants for licences. However, it should be noted that
reaching the performance targets set out below requires the joint

have important roles to play in the processing of licence applications
on the aspects of building and fire safety respectively.
