This order says that **if someone uses a venue that already has a general 'place of assembly licence', and they use it with the licence holder's permission and follow the licence conditions, they don't have to comply with section 75 of the Act.**\n\n**Who it affects:**\n- People or organisations running events (performances, festivals, sports events, lectures, etc.) in licensed venues\n- The licence holders who give permission for others to use their spaces\n- Essentially, it covers anyone hiring or borrowing a properly licensed venue for public gatherings\n\n**Why it matters:**\nWithout this exemption, people using a licensed venue might have to apply for separate approvals or comply with duplicate regulations. This cuts red tape by saying: \"If the venue is already properly licensed and you're following that licence, you don't need extra paperwork under section 75.\"\n\n**Note:** Clauses 4 and 6 were removed in 2001, so only clause 5 remains in force."},"summary":{"complexity_score":2,"scope_assessment":{"changed":false,"description":"Based on the available information, there is no indication the scope changed from the original intent.
