Overview
Gambling Connection: Somerset Council held a UKGC licence under reference UKGC-4911, first issued on 10 November 2016, which has since been surrendered. This is one of two separate UKGC licence records attributed to the council.
Somerset Council appears in the UKGC database under two separate licence references. This record, UKGC-4911, covers a licence first issued on 10 November 2016, predating the council's other UKGC-4910 entry by over two years. Local authorities sometimes hold multiple licences for different types of gambling activity or for different administrative purposes.
Like the other Somerset Council licence entry, this one carries a surrendered status. A voluntary surrender means the council chose to relinquish it, with no enforcement action recorded. The company record itself remains active, as the entity continues to exist as a functioning local authority regardless of its licensing position.
