Responsible authorities are defined in the Licensing Act 2003. These authorities are able to comment on applications made under the Act, and apply for a review of a licence in certain circumstances (see 'Review').
Certain applications need to be served on all or some responsible authorities on the same day as the application is made to the Licensing Authority.
Contact details for the responsible authorities in Leicester are as follows:
Leicestershire Constabulary
Any notice to the police required under the legislation should be served on;
The Chief Officer of Police,
The Licensing Section,
Mansfield House,
74 Belgrave Gate,

Because of the tight time constraints imposed by the Act the use of e-mail, when available, is recommended by the Constabulary. Faxed notices are acceptable, as are those sent by traditional mail.
