Designated Premises Supervisor
A Designated Premises Supervisor (DPS) is the person who has overall day to day responsibility for a premises and supervises all sales of alcohol.
The DPS should be present at the premises for the majority of the time they are open. Only one DPS can be nominated. If that person leaves your employment you cannot continue to sell alcohol until another personal licence holder has been nominated as a DPS.
You must apply to us immediately to replace them as DPS on the premises licence. We recommend that more than one person connected with a premises holds a personal licence.
