South Australian Consolidated Acts62C—Certificate of approval for addition to producer's licence of
proposed premises as outlet
(1) The licensing
authority may refuse an application for the addition to a producer's licence
of proposed premises as a production outlet or retail outlet having regard to
the extent to which the proposed premises are uncompleted but may, instead,
grant a
certificate (a "certificate of approval") approving the plans submitted by the
applicant in respect of the proposed premises if satisfied that any approvals,
consents or exemptions that are required under the law relating to planning to
permit the use of the proposed premises for the sale of liquor have been
obtained.
(2) A
certificate of approval—
(a) may
be granted on conditions the licensing authority thinks fit; and
(b) may
include a statement of conditions to which, in the opinion of the licensing
authority, the licence should be subject on the addition of the premises
(either in addition to, or in substitution for, existing conditions of the
licence).
(3) If—
(a) a
certificate has been granted under subsection (1); and
(b) the
holder of the certificate satisfies the licensing authority—
(i)
that the conditions (if any) on which the certificate was
granted have been complied with; and
(ii)
that the premises have been completed in accordance with
plans approved by the licensing authority on the grant of the certificate or a
variation of those plans later approved by the licensing authority,
the new premises must be added to the licence and, if the certificate of
approval provides for the addition or substitution of conditions, the licence
then becomes subject to the new conditions in accordance with the terms of the
certificate.
(4) A transaction
under which the holder of a certificate of approval agrees to the transfer of
the certificate for a monetary or other consideration is void unless the
proposed transfer is to a close associate.
