Licences - late night catering
Operators of premises which sells hot food to take away after 11 pm at night require a "Late Hours Catering Licence". This applies to premises that sell food as refreshments i.e. garages which provide micromeals to take away, not just Take-a-way food establishments.
West Lothian Council's policy on late hours catering is that premises may be licensed as a late hours catering establishment until the hours of 1 a.m. and that a home delivery service to residential or commercial or industrial premises whilst being used as such may be permitted, upon application, until the hour of 2 a.m. All applications to operate a home delivery service will be referred to the Licensing Committee of the Council.
