You said

We received 90 responses to the consultation on a variety of issues contained in the draft policy statement.  A substantial number of responses referred to the legislation as a whole and disagreement with the introduction of a licensing scheme.

We did

A Report was prepared and placed before Perth and Kinross Licensing Committee on 22 September 2022.  That report included all consultation responses.  The Committee then decided the full terms of the Short Term Lets Licensing Scheme Policy Statement to apply from 1 October 2022. 

Overview

Provide us with your views on the new short term let licensing scheme
