- 18 Fax from Home Office, 23/2/93
- The Entertainments (Increased Penalties) Act 1990 tightened up the penalties
for infringement of the entertainment licensing laws. It increased to a
fine of #20,000 and imprisonment for up to six months, or both, the maximum
penalties magistrates can impose for certain offences against the entertainment
licensing laws in England and Wales. The fine was previously #2,000 or three
months imprisonment or both. The offences in question concern the use of
a place for entertainment involving music and dancing without the necessary
licence which places a limit on the number of people which may be present
at the entertainment. In addition, the Criminal Justice Act 1988 (Confiscation
Order) gives magistrates the power to make confiscation orders when the
profits exceed #10,000.
