Reasons for the decision
 
The application to vary this premises licence has been
approved, as members of the Licensing Sub-committee were satisfied
that the licensing objectives would not be undermined.
 
The Sub-committee took into consideration the objection to
the application made by the Licensing Authority on the grounds of
crime and disorder and the prevention of public nuisance and
representations made by 2 Other Persons (local residents). The
Sub-committee noted that there were no objections from the other
Responsible Authorities.
 
The Sub-committee took into consideration that the
Applicant had agreed conditions with the Metropolitan Police
Service and they withdrew their objection.
 
The Sub-committee took into account that the Licensing
Authority made representations that the hours applied for by the
Applicant were outside of Core hours (Policy LP3) and planning
issues under Policy LP5.
 
The Sub-committee took into consideration representations
made by the Ward Councillor objecting to the hours and they asked
for the hours to be Core hours in line with other premises in the
area.
 
The Sub-committee heard objections from two local
residents, and they noted that the Applicant had 11 Temporary
Events at the premises from June January to November 2022 without
incident.
 
The Sub-committee heard the Applicant’s
representations that they are part of a WhatsApp group for other premises in the area, and
they want to work with local residents. The Applicant contended
that they were seeking off sales to 23:00 hours, and  recorded background music. The Sub-committee heard
that they have a noise limiter and it is not every week that they
play music. The Sub-committee noted that the capacity is estimated
at 45 to 50 persons.
 
The Sub-committee felt that the premises had good community
involvement, a good track record, and they have more resident
contact once every three months together with a slight extension to
the hours. The Sub-committee noted that the Applicant is part of
the traders association, and they were pleased to hear about the
community services that the Applicant provides.
 
The Sub-committee hoped that going there will be no issues
with noise and impact on local residents nearby. The Sub-committee
noted that following the Applicants representations the Ward
Councillor and the Licensing Authority were content with the
proposed application to vary the premises licence.
 
Having taken all of the above factors into consideration
the Sub-committee was satisfied that by granting this variation of
the premises licence, the licensing objectives would continue to be
promoted.

The Sub-committee, after hearing from the Applicant, and
the Responsible Authorities (the Licensing Authority and the
