"content": "“(2A) A licence shall be valid for the period stipulated in the licence: Provided that a licence issued to a business intending to operate for one year or more shall be valid for one year from the date of issue” The justification is that the amendment seeks to make provision concerning the duration and validity of a licence. This is to cater for the needs of a short-term as well as a long-time licence and ensuring that the licences lapse on the anniversary of their issuance as opposed to the current scenario where they lapse at the end of a financial year."

Many people who came before the Committee complained that there is lack of uniformity and discrimination in the manner in which licences lapse. If I apply for my license today, at the end of the financial year it lapses and I have eight or seven months as opposed to somebody who applied at the beginning of the financial year. Therefore, I support."

Basically, the argument presented by members of the public is that I can choose to start a business anytime of the year. I am not conditioned to start it in January or 1st July. Therefore, when I pay, that amount should cover for a period specified in the licence, one-year or whichever period. It should not be that if I pay in December, it ends on 31st December and I The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
