Between May 2020 and March 2022 we are satisfied that the Respondent did not hold the appropriate licence and so the offence was committed. Has the application been made in time? … The Application was received on 13th April 2022. The application was made within 12 months of the offence ending and so the application was made within the statutory time of 12 months.
