    I've been on your public register and can see that Admiral Taverns is the Premises Licence holder of the above premises. I could not see where the information regarding Notifications or Permits was stored, so could you confirm whether there is a Gaming Machine Notification or Gaming Machine Permit in the Premises Licence holder's name. If there is a permit could you also confirm the number and category of machines covered and when the annual fee would be due.
