Any
exhibition, demonstration or performance of hypnotism (as defined in the Hypnotism
Act 1952) on any person requires the express written consent of the licensing
authority and must comply with any attached conditions.
An
application for consent must be in writing and signed by the applicant
or their agent. It should normally be made not less that 28 days in
advance of the performance concerned. This period may be reduced in the
case of a hypnotist who has performed at the same venue within the last three
years without any problems.
The
applicant must at the same time forward a copy of the application to the chief
officer of police; and the council may also copy it to the local fire authority
if it considers this necessary.
