I have had a licence for 20 years or more,dont think it's a bad thing my two issues would be why it has to go out on pubic notice for about a month ,then go to police for a criminal background report,,who have 21 days to respond,never been done within this time scale,i feel in these days of computers the police should know everything you have done in minutes,making the need for the public review unnecessary,also why renew every 3 years ,needless unless you have a conviction.
