Provisions as to licences.

2.(1) A [district] council may grant licences to such persons as they think
fit to use the premises specified in the licence [for the purpose of
cinematograph exhibitions (as defined in the Cinematograph Act (Northern
Ireland), 1959)] on such terms and conditions and under such restrictions as,
subject to regulations of the Minister of Home Affairs, the council may by the
respective licences determine.

(2) A licence shall be in force for one year or for such shorter period as the
council on the grant of the licence may determine, unless the licence has been
previously revoked as herein-after provided.

(3) A [district] council may transfer any licence granted by them to such
other person as they think fit.

(4) An applicant for a licence or transfer of a licence shall give not less
than seven days' notice in writing to the [district] council and to the chief
officer of police of the police area in which the premises are situated of his
intention to apply for a licence or transfer:

Provided that it shall not be necessary to give any notice where the
application is for the renewal of an existing licence held by the applicant
for the same premises.

(5) There shall be paid in respect of the grant, renewal, or transfer of a
licence such fees as the [district] council may fix, not exceeding in the case
of a grant or renewal for one year [#5.00], or in the case of a grant or
renewal for any less period [#1.25] for every month for which it is granted or
