Camden's alcohol policy is currently under review and the London council is asking for residents to share their views.
The council is responsible for licensing and enforcing the licences of more than 1,400 premises including pubs, clubs and restaurants.
The consultation was launched last month and will run until Wednesday, October 24. The Licensing Committee will consider all the views at its meeting in December 2007 and the new Statement of Licensing Policy will be published in January 2008.
The new policy will include what should be taken into consideration:
• When an application is received for a licence to sell and supply alcohol, for example a corner shop wanting to sell alcohol
• When an application is received regarding providing entertainment at a particular premise, for example a pub wanting bands to play at the weekend
• When an application is received for a late night alcohol licence, for example extending a licence to sell alcohol from 11pm until 3am
• In areas that have a lot of pubs and clubs for example so require higher protection from the council and police.
Cllr Don Williams, chair of Camden's Licensing Committee, said: "This is an opportunity for individuals and establishments to have their views heard on Camden's night time activity from restaurants, cafes, pubs and clubs.
"Let us know how you think licensing applications should be dealt with and help shape our future strategy with regards to licensing in the borough."
