Common confusion points
Confusing 'revoking' with 'applying': You are asking them to *remove* a restriction, not just ask for permission.
Not knowing if you need separate forms for Sunday afternoon and St. Patrick's Day; this form handles both simultaneously.
Assuming the local council automatically knows about your exemption status—you must formally tell COURTS via this order.
Failing to specify *which* licence or business entity the exemption applies to.
