The court held that s46A provides for vicarious liability of a licensee for offences committed by servants and, on the magistrate's factual findings together with a licence condition requiring personal supervision, a sufficient inference of the licensee's permission/knowledge existed to support a case to answer; accordingly the application for certification to appeal to the Court of Final Appeal was refused as the points were not of great and general importance.
