The Applicant – Mr Johal
Representations
The Assistant Director, Waste, Fleet and Transport Services presented Document “Q” which outlined an application for a new premises licence for the sale of alcohol for consumption off the premises and the provision of late night refreshment.
In response to a question from the Chair, it was clarified that the sale of hot food and drink was a licensable activity between the hours of 2300 and 0500, therefore this application was for the sale of alcohol off the premises between 0700 and midnight and the provision of late night refreshment between 2300 and midnight.
The applicant then made representations in respect of his application, stating that he had been requested by customers to begin the sale of alcohol. He had not originally been aware of the need for a licence but, having been made aware of the requirement, he had made the application now being considered. He intended to offer deliveries of alcohol with take away food not sales on the premises, as such he did not consider that his application would make any difference to the area. He noted that only one person had objected. He also stated that he was aware of his responsibility to children s a consequence of the licence.
In response to questions from the Panel, he confirmed that he had owned the shop for two years but that it had not originally been a takeaway; that he had not had any problems in that time and that he undertook a litter-pick in front of the premises every morning as the shop opened.
Having adjourned to deliberate, the Senior Licensing Officer requested that a further question be asked of the applicant and the meeting reconvened. The applicant was then asked how he would ascertain that the recipients of a delivery were of an appropriate age. In response, he advised that he and his fellow driver would ask for proof of identification when making deliveries.
The Panel then adjourned once more to deliberate.
Resolved –
That having considered all valid representations made by the parties to the hearing; valid written representations received during the statutory period, the published statement of licensing policy and relevant statutory guidance; the panel grants the application as applied for.
