6. Club premises certificates6.1 This Chapter covers the administration of the processes for issuing, varying, and reviewingclub premises certificates and other associated procedures.GENERAL6.2 Clubs are organisations where members have joined together for particular social, sportingor political purposes. They may then combine to buy alcohol in bulk as members of theorganisation to supply in the club.6.3 Technically the club only sells alcohol by retail at such premises to guests. Where memberspurchase alcohol, there is no sale (as the member owns part of the alcohol stock) and themoney passing across the bar is merely a mechanism to preserve equity between memberswhere one may consume more than another.6.4 Only ‘qualifying’ clubs may hold club premises certificates. In order to be a qualifying club, aclub must have at least 25 members and meet the conditions set out below. The grant ofa club premises certificate means that a qualifying club is entitled to certain benefits.These include:• the authority to supply alcohol to members and sell it to guests on the premises towhich the certificate relates without the need for any member or employee to hold apersonal licence;• more limited rights of entry for the police and authorised persons because the premises areconsidered private and not generally open to the public;• exemption from police powers of instant closure on grounds of disorder and noise nuisance(except when being used under the authority of a temporary event notice or premiseslicence) because they operate under their codes of discipline and rules; and• exemption from orders of the magistrates’ court for the closure of all licensed premises inan area when disorder is happening or expected.6.5 Qualifying clubs should not be confused with proprietary clubs, which are clubs runcommercially by individuals, partnerships or businesses for profit. These require a premiseslicence and are not qualifying clubs.6.6 A qualifying club will be permitted under the terms of a club premises certificate to sell andsupply alcohol to its members and their guests only. Instant membership is not permittedand members must wait at least two days between their application and their admission tothe club. A qualifying club may choose to apply for a premises licence if it decides that itwishes to offer its facilities commercially for use by the general public, including the saleof alcohol to them. However, an individual on behalf of a club may give temporary eventnotices. See Chapter 7.38 AMENDED GUIDANCE ISSUED UNDER SECTION 182 OF THE LICENSING ACT 2003
