1. A copy of the premises dispersal policy shall be made readily available at the premises for inspection by a police officer and/or an authorised officer of Westminster City Council.
2. On Saturday trade there shall be a designated welfare officer appointed separate to SIA functions to monitor the behaviour and conduct of patrons within the premises and on dispersal.
