the Director is deregulatory; and
(b) the notice given under section 12(2) above in the
case of the proposal for the modification
contained a statement of that opinion and of the
Director’s reasons for it.
(4) This subsection applies if—
(a) the modification is in the same or similar terms as
modifications that the Director has already
proposed but not yet made in the case of other
licences;

the modifications of the conditions of the other
licences;

the licence in question has been given a
reasonable opportunity of stating whether he
objects to the modification; and
(e) that person has not objected.
(5) A reminder for the purposes of subsection (2)(a)
above—
(a) must be contained in a notice given by the
Director and, in the case of a relevant licensee
which is a company with a registered office in the

modification in question;
(c) must state that the Director will be able to make

(6) Nothing in subsection (2) above shall require a
reminder to be sent to a person who has consented to the
