SUBMISSIONS AND REASONS
The Presenting Officer, Jessica Donavan, Senior Licensing Officer, introduced the application to the Sub-Committee.

She highlighted the stringent conditions already attached to the Premises Licence and that patrons could only obtain alcohol ancillary to a table meal except for in the very limited bar area where patrons could purchase a drink before or after their meal at the restaurant. She emphasised that the bar area was not just a bar; it was in the middle of the establishment and that operationally it did not make sense to have a bar where people were drinking whilst others were sitting down and enjoying their dinner.

Issues raised by Objectors
EHS: The supply of alcohol for the hours requested may have the likely effect of causing an increase in Public Nuisance and may affect Public Safety
MPS: The proposed extension of licensable activities is likely to undermine the licensing objectives. The hours sought exceed the Council’s Core Hours policy.
Local Residents: Very residential area. Increase in public nuisance and noise. Increase in anti-social behaviour.
