I can assure the Deputy that this is not the case. The agreed settlement confirms that I, as Minister, will determine any future application for a licence in accordance with the relevant statutory provisions, and reserves my entitlement to grant or refuse any such application for a licence for a future season with the proviso that certain conditions included in the licence issued in December 2007 will not be re-imposed.
