From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

(originally nominated as Licensing law in England and Wales)

So that those German spies can blend in the bit better. Actually, it's sort-of an interesting subject, certainly something confusing to tourists (and, TBH, I'm not very sure of it myself), and it's just recently changed and is sort-of in the news (see Licensing Act 2003. "In E&W" as (a) people get upset when you (correctly) refer to the area in legal terms as just "England", and (b) I understand that both S and NI have seperate rules). James F.

Perhaps the whole of the UK could be covered, just in different sections? -- Joolz 15:28, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)
I agree, perhaps Licensing law in the United Kingdom. I think there would be a fair amount of duplication between the three articles if we had one for Scotland and N.I. as well. Sections would be best IMHO. Speaking of that, there isn't a general licensing law article (just Alcoholic beverage#Legal considerations). Talrias | talk 15:50, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)
By the way, I'm for this article (or Licensing law in the United Kingdom) to become the UKCOTW. Whilst I was typing this it occured to me that it should perhaps be Licensing laws of the United Kingdom (rather than law in) -- Joolz 22:11, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)
I agree, so as this got the most votes it's been made UK COTW, with the title you suggested. Talrias | talk 17:40, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)
