5.1 The TML&TS briefly read through her report whilst sharing her screen. 5.2 The Chair thanked the TML&TS and her team for their efforts during what was a difficult quarter. 5.3 The TML&TS responded to a Members’ question by reporting that Temporary Event Notice (TEN) counter notices were not issued by the Licensing Panel.
