Decision (including reasons if different from those set out in report):

The Sub-Committee considered an application by Mr Zulfiqar Khan, for a variation of a premises licence in respect of Chicken Cottage, Ground Floor, and 338 Kilburn Lane, London, W9 3EF. The Premises was not situated in the Cumulative Impact Zone. 

The Licensing Officer introduced the application to the Sub-Committee and advised that Representations had been received from Environmental Health Service and three local residents. The Sub-Committee was advised that Conditions proposed by Environmental Health had not been included in the Licensing Sub-Committee Report and had been circulated to all Parties. 

Mr Macleay (Applicant’s Representative) at the start of his submissions advised that he had further supporting documents which included a bundle of pictures and maps of the local area where the Premises was situated and this included photos of other nearby premises. The Legal Adviser stated that the supporting documents would be classified as a late submission and could only be considered if   all parties present consented to the material, which was then sanctioned by the Sub-Committee. The Chairman exercising her discretion agreed to accept such documentation and this was, considered by the Sub-Committee in its determination of the matter. The individual Members of the Sub-Committee all advised that they were familiar with the locality and surrounding areas.

Mr Macleay advised that Mr Khan (Applicant) had occupied the property which the Premises was located since 2000 and held a Licence since 2007. He commented that the Premises was surrounded by a number of other businesses which operated various times throughout the day and this included a 24hr convenience store as well as other eateries. He advised that the locality had changed since the redevelopment of the area and had become busier especially near to the local Station. The local Station was reported to now close at a later time and that the traffic flow in the immediate areas had increased.  Mr Macleay stated further that the Premises did not trade on Sunday.

The Sub-Committee was advised that two staff members were on the Premises on all shifts and this increased to three during the weekends.  ...  view the full minutes text for item 1.
