Section 63(1) of the Small Business, Enterprise and Employment Act 2015 (the Act) authorises the PCA to impose a levy on pub-owning businesses towards PCA’s expenses. Section 63(5) of the Act permits the PCA to vary the amount to be paid by pub-owning businesses, to reflect the expense and time that the PCA expects to spend in dealing with matters relating to them in the application of the Code. Before imposing the levy, the PCA must obtain the consent of the Secretary of State – section 63(2) of the Act.
