Decision (including reasons if different from those set out in report):
The Sub-Committee considered an application by Daisy Green Food Ltd (“The Applicant”) for a new premises licence in respect of Daisy Green, 2 Canalside Walk, London, W2 1DG. The Premises were formed of a roof area linked to the Premises at 1 Canalside Walk. The Applicant was seeking to permit sales of alcohol (On and Off Sales) on the roof area between the hours of 10:00 to 23:30 Monday to Thursday, 10:00 to 00:00 Friday to Saturday and 12:00 to 22:30 on Sundays.
Mr Kevin Jackaman, Presenting Officer introduced the application to the Sub-Committee and advised that representations had been received from the Metropolitan Police, Environmental Health, The South East Bayswater Residents' Association (SEBRA) and the Paddington Waterways and Maida Vale Society (PWMVS).
The Sub-Committee was pleased to note the level of communication between the Applicant and interested parties which led to several proposed conditions being imposed on the licence. This included a Condition which required a register of persons attending private functions or events to be kept at the Premises and to be made available to the Police or the Local Authority on request. A further Condition was also imposed which required for all licensable activities provided at the Premises to be ancillary to the main function of the building as offices.
After taking into consideration all the evidence before it, the Sub-Committee considered that the conditions it had imposed on the licence were appropriate and proportionate and would have the overall effect of promoting the licensing objectives The Sub-Committee therefore granted the application accordingly.
