BAR bosses who have yet to put in their applications to convert to the new licensing scheme are being offered a last chance in the Scarborough area.

Members of the borough council's licensing team have offered to go into work on Saturday to process any last-minute applications hand-delivered to their King Street offices.

Applications received after this will be returned to the applicant - and premises trading without a correct licence on November 24 will be operating illegally and may face prosecution and closure.
