Summary

The Licensing (2003 Act) Sub-Committee meeting was adjourned following a request from GT, who were instructed to represent the licence holder at the review hearing. A new hearing date will be set, and all parties will be informed at least 10 working days in advance.

Review of Premises Licence for 107 Leytonstone Road

The primary item on the agenda was the review of the premises licence for 107 Leytonstone Road, Stratford, London E15 1JA, which falls within the Maryland ward. However, following a request for adjournment by GT, the legal representatives for the licence holder, the sub-committee agreed to postpone the review. Councillor Tonii Wilson, Chair of Licensing Committee, stated that the decision to adjourn was made:

in the interests of fairness. There will be a new hearing date and all parties will be informed of the hearing at least 10 working days before.

The review application was submitted by the Trading Standards Team on 10 October 2025, citing concerns across all four licensing objectives outlined in the Licensing Act 20031: the prevention of crime and disorder, public safety, the prevention of public nuisance, and the protection of children from harm.

The public reports pack included several appendices providing background information:

  • Appendix A: The review application itself.
  • Appendix B: A copy of the previous premises licence.
  • Appendix C: A copy of the current premises licence.
  • Appendix D: An area plan and street view of the premises.
  • Appendix E: Further area plans and street views.

The premises in question had been granted a licence in 2008, with conditions added following a sub-committee hearing. The licence was transferred in 2023 and again on 14 October 2025 to Iveta Kleinoviene, with no objections received during the consultation period. Eugenijus Kleinovas is the designated premises supervisor2. The current licence, Premises Licence Number 25/04574/LATRA N, permits the supply of alcohol from 10:00 to 22:00, Monday to Sunday, for off-site consumption only. The opening hours are until midnight from Monday to Saturday, and until 22:00 on Sunday.

Other Matters

The agenda also included:


  1. The Licensing Act 2003 is a UK law that regulates the sale and supply of alcohol, as well as the provision of regulated entertainment and late-night refreshment. It aims to balance the interests of businesses, residents, and responsible authorities. 

  2. A Designated Premises Supervisor (DPS) is a key role in licensed premises in the UK. They are responsible for authorising the sale of alcohol and ensuring compliance with the licensing objectives.
