People conducting a wide variety of businesses within Toronto must obtain a licence from the City's Municipal Licensing and Standards Division (ML&S). If ML&S has refused to issue a licence or to renew a licence, the decision can be referred to the Toronto Licencing Tribunal for review. Staff from Toronto Court Services provide administrative support to the Tribunal.

The following brochure (PDF) provides more detailed information on the role of the Tribunal, how to request a hearing, how to prepare for a hearing and what to expect at a hearing. Contact information is also contained in the brochure.
