KembaraXtra – Legal Terms – Licence
A licence is official permission allowing a person to carry out an activity that would otherwise be unlawful. Common examples include licences for driving, selling alcohol, or using patented inventions.
In land law, a licence grants permission to enter or use land without transferring ownership or exclusive possession. It creates a personal right rather than a proprietary interest in the land.
Licences may be temporary or contractual in nature. While some can be revoked, others may become binding or irrevocable in certain circumstances, particularly where fairness requires it, such as through estoppel or trust principles.
