The Policy Note summarises that the purpose of the instrument is to make a number of provisions in relation to short term lets properties, including: • amend the definition of “commercial consideration” to make clear that provision of a service is no longer included in that definition. • exclude temporary placements for foster children where the accommodation is not their main residence. • provide clarity that licensing authorities can approve part of an application for a single licence for multiple premises on the same site. • exclude guest rooms within certain residential accommodation that are available for visiting residents. • clarify how temporary exemptions operate and set out transitional arrangements for some of the changes in this amendment order. • introduce provisional short-term let licences which can be applied for at the construction stage of new short-term let accommodation. • introduce provisions for the transfer of licences in certain circumstances.
