(Hello.  I'm the person who actually submitted the notice in question.)

The document was submitted, in fact, on Saturday via the government's
Business Link website, which is the council's approved method of electronic
submission (
http://www.businesslink.gov.uk/bdotg/action/piplink?agency_id=870&service_id=16200010001
).

The act says "The temporary event notice [...] must be given to the
relevant licensing authority no later than ten working days before the day
on which the event period begins" - the reference is to 'given', not
'received'.

I thought section 102.1 of the Act might also be significant:

"Where a licensing authority receives a temporary event notice (in
duplicate) in accordance with this Part, it must acknowledge receipt of the
notice by sending or delivering one notice to the premises user—
(a)before the end of the first working day following the day on which it
was received, or
(b)if the day on which it was received was not a working day, before the
end of the second working day following that day."

...which appears to contradict the notion that a notice can only be
considered to have been received on a working day.

Thanks all for your thoughts.
