The Committee heard that an agreement had been reached between the Applicant and the Responsible Authorities. The Committee considered the content of the agreement and was satisfied that a licence granted on these terms should not undermine the Licensing Objectives.

Decision

To grant the Premises Licence variation, subject to the agreement between the Applicant and the Responsible Authorities.

The report of the Head of Planning, Building Control and Licensing is attached.

The Committee considered the representations from all parties and noted that although this was an existing licence it had recently been transferred to the applicant who was a new operator of these premises. These premises did have a history of problems however the Committee took account of the fact that this had been under the management of a different operator. The Committee considered that the hours now requested would alleviate the concerns of the objectors that commuters would be coming across patrons leaving the premises. The Committee was satisfied that the conditions agreed between the parties with the amendment added above would ensure the premises were managed appropriately. The Committee therefore considered there were no grounds on which to refuse the application.
