I am considering the report of the consultants who were engaged to assist with the review of the licensing regime. My proposals for the future of the licensing regime will be considered by Government in the near future and I will then take appropriate steps to give effect to the decisions taken. It would be my intention to publish the consultants' report after the matter has been considered by Government.
