Summary of the Application

 

This Sub-Committee has determined an application for a New Provisional Statement under the Licensing Act 2003 (“The Act”). The Premises intends to operate as a restaurant with ancillary bar on the ground and first floor retail unit within the Marble Arch development site. This is a new application and therefore no Premises Licence history exists. Information in support of the Application can be found at Appendix 2 of the Agenda Report. Correspondence from the Residents’ Groups, correspondence with the Metropolitan Police Service, a copy of the Premises’ planning permission and a summary of proposals can be found in the Additional Information Pack.

 

There is no policy presumption to refuse the application. There is a resident count of 93.

·       Insufficient detail as to how it would not compromise the Licensing Objectives and is outside Core Hours.
