About the Licence Register
In this search you will find every licensee who currently holds a personal licence. You can also see what type of personal licence they hold.
A Personal Management Licence (PML) is required by all persons who occupy a specified management office in respect of the holder of an operating licence. Those who are responsible for such management functions, whatever their actual job title, will require PMLs, unless exempt under the small scale operator exemption.

A Personal Functional Licence (PFL) is required by those individuals who perform any function which enables them to influence the outcome of gambling, or relating to the receiving or paying of money in connection with gambling.

If a licensee is subject to a regulatory sanction this is displayed on the public register and it is also listed on the regulatory action page of this website.
