  6              The premises licence holder or club premises certificate holder shall ensure that an age verification policy applies to the premises in relation to the sale or supply of alcohol. The policy must require individuals who appear to the responsible person to be under 18 year of age (or such older age as may be specified in the policy) to produce on request, before being served alcohol, identification bearing their photograph, date of birth and a holographic mark.

   

  7              The responsible person shall ensure that -

                (2) In this condition:-

  iii.              V is the rate of value added tax chargeable in relation to the alcohol as if the value added tax were charged on the date of the sale or supply of the alcohol;

  b.              “duty” is to be construed in accordance with the Alcoholic Liquor Duties Act 1979;

  c.              “relevant person” means, in relation to premises in respect of which there is in force a premises licence-

  i.              the holder of the premises licence,

  ii.              the designated premises supervisor (if any) in respect of such a licence, or

  iii.              the personal licence holder who makes or authorises a supply of alcohol under such a licence;

  d.              “relevant person” means, in relation to premises in respect of which there is in force a club premises certificate, any member or officer of the club present on the premises in a capacity which enables the member or officer to prevent the supply in question; and

  e.              “value added tax” means value added tax charged in accordance with the Value Added Tax Act 1994.

   

                (3) Where the permitted price would not be a whole number of pennies, the permitted price shall be taken to be the price rounded up to the nearest penny.

   

                (4) Where the permitted price on a day (“the first day”) would be different from the permitted price on the next day (“the second day”) as a result of a change to the rate of duty or value added tax, the permitted price which would apply on the first day applies to sales or supplies of alcohol which take place before the expiry of the period of 14 days beginning on the second day.
